essentally this on the end of short CAI tubing left over from a project I had along with what I belive is a 5" cone filter attached .. I goes directly to where the factory air box was but I obviously dont have a heat/splash shield set up on this currently.. If I can squeeze it I may attempt to reverse it for a cowl setup...

It would be very similar to doing the same thing with tube rockers

Here's. Cheap way I modded my airbox
Attachment 78870
I used an internal 3" street 45 and it's has given me some good kick and it still has that stock vacuum pull. It's a good cheap mod Instead of getting the AEM or a cowl intake

1 table spoon of water is not going to hydrolock anything but a chainsaw.
I use seafoam on a regular basis, its a liquid and I've dumped an entire 12oz can into the jeep at idle on multiple occasions without doing any damage.
It actually ran far better afterwards
It works amazingly well, i don't understand the physics behind it though
Never tried it...makes sense though since it works really well to clean the "other" inside of a motor

My Take on a False Floor
So I have been just keeping my eyes open for roadside junk that is usable and finally collected enough stuff to do up my false floor/shelf...
I used a piece of 5/8" plywood (found it while wheeling in the woods, haha) some scraps of 2x4 and the carpet from the back of the jeep, with padding stripped off, went real simple cause there was no need to be fancy
Started with cleaned out back (no carpet, spray can of bedliner)
put bins in plus 2x4 on top (came to just under 8") then made cardboard templates
smaller template was for cubby cover
cut plywood to fit, and 2x4 scraps to 8" and 8" strip of the plywood down the middle, screws to hold all items together
stapled carpet on with "front" wrapped under
all finished up
