    Ok for the people not doing an open cone, here is an idea i got from another write up. use a roof vent seal to make a heat shield or to seal the filter into the fender.

    Lowes and HD both have them.
    here is a pic of the intake i made for my DOHC


    another version i had before made installing a bit easier here are its pics


    i mark it as PVC pipe but you can use any type. ABS, Steel, Al, cheese... well maybe not cheese. but you get the idea. the flex elbows came off my DOHC and they are on the 3100's i got an extra one from the junk yard for almost nothing.... and it has a port in there for the IAT as well.

    I seriously laughed when reading some of these posts with all of the easy questions. Im not a master mechanic by ANY means but some questions were just ridiculous! Lol. Btw, nice method of open cone.

    Eh, we were all noobs at one point of our modding careers.

    By the way, this isn't an open cone. Open cone is just sticking the filter onto the throttle body.

    my feeling is if the cone doesn't have an enclosure or is not in a fender it is an open cone?.....

    when i get my blower on, i want to use an extra map sensor to do a test of pressure between an open cone right on the TB/MAF vs a FWI. Dyno data is great but if you can see the pressure difference then that should resolve this too. along with temp data

    i decided to do this. i was in menards and i remembered about this but couldn't remember if it said 3 inch or 4 inch pipe but i knew that the maf was 3 and my cone was 4 inches so i bought a 4 inch pipe with the bigger end and just cut it off and got a 3" to 4" rubber coupler. now im just waiting on my filter

    just saying can't the plastic melt? Wouldn't it be safer to go with metal tubing instead of plastic?

    it will be fine the engine doesn't get that hot the plastics not sitting on hot metal, think about all the plastic under the hood that is closer to heat then the intake the factory box is plastic. but wouldn't hurt to go with metal this way is just cheaper

    You'll just have to incorporate it into the intake setup, example: cutting the main piece of pipe in half, setting the MAF in the middle...and getting another set of clamps to secure it there.

    Or, make it super easy...and just bolt a cone filter to the end of the MAF sensor.

    Great idea!! I just purchased a 2000 GTP. I'm loving the car!! I just did mine in about 40 minutes. Just did a test drive and yes... you sure can hear the supercharger now. I spent about $50 on parts. Advanced Auto Parts in my area had several filters and colors to choose from. Got the rest at Lowes and painted the 45 degree street elbow silver using the high temp paint. I will fill it up to see if I have any change in fuel economy. Next will be headers and exhaust work.

    I just bungeed it for now. Zip ties are a great idea though. Aren't you worried it'll slide and get screwed up though?
