Default 5min custom air box

so when i bought my jeep is was modified a little, i have changed a lot but one of the things i havnt gotten to was replacing the pos air filter the previous owner put in. however i was able to make it better by taking some simple scrap metal and a plasma to make a air bx in less than 5 minutes, check it out.

now i know its not the best in the world but for free and only 5 min of work it works very well.

Glue exhaust wrap to the out side and make it seal with the hood you have your self a cold air intake

You may go fast, but I don't get stuck
