My Air Filter system

Air filter was in the way of throttle and angled velocity stacks are out of stock. So had to come up with something.


At homedepot got some pipe and other stuff in section for baths.


At the end everything worked out great. And for some reason I have seen about 20% torque increase.


In future I might get truck body, make a hole on hood and put filter there.


Should look kick-ass

I was going to get normal hose, but then i saw accordion hose. It works better because you can extend it and put in front between shock tower and bumper.


I figured out it works better when extended because filter is hitting all air when moving.


I tried to put it behind shock tower and overall driving experience changed.


Hopefully I will sell few bajas and get few more upgrades for my tt. Money...

Thats all we had a few years ago was Redneck fixes. At least a few of the Baja mods will now fit.

i like that idea. maybe there is a way to make it look cleaner. isnt that the way some race cars have their air filter set up?
