    After much deliberation and "Careful planning" I have a new air intake setup.





    granted, I know a FWI would yield better results, but on a limited budget, and limited knowledge, its good enough for now

    Looks like a block heater to me. Plug it in to your house outlet when it get below freezing for better starting and easier on your car.

    Yep block heater cord for sure. i knew that one instantly before i even scrolled down. As an ohioan i see those alot. And as far as the intake i started laughing when i saw it. You'd prob be better off with a piece of dryer hose run into your fenderwell than that thing. Spectre intake piping is a joke as stated above. Im surprised u didnt crack it while installing it.
