Custom Intake
Has anyone ever tried anything like this? Is it a custom job? It looks interesting, and inexpensive...question is, does it work.
If this is your car, I borrowed a picture of it...hope you don't mind.

I know a few people that have done this to various cars (I know silver_p5_owner did it to his car) and it does help a little. Problem is that the factory airbox on our cars is quite restrictive (even with a K&N). This style of homemade intake still uses the stock airbox which means you've still got some big restrictions on air flow.
