GHETTO custom intake, motor runs but not very good need help!

I'm just thinking more about power and reliability.

bluevitz you drive solid points and admittedly you're right, if that was your goal, which why wouldn't it be right? that was the whole point to being with, power reliability, but what it comes down to is there dyno proven guaranteed CAIs available but i just like the one i made. there is lots of guys that have rolled with their own custom made set ups that have done fine for years.

in conclusion, i think to each their own.

and who knows it may gain just as much as a name brand intake, its more or less the same general idea.
it does pull better than stock

BTW since u already made the MAF custom mounting, why don't u just put the blue rubber connector to the throttle and it'll look nicer. there's no need to use any of the stock rubber thingys

I had a ghetto intake until about 3 weeks, worked great for 4 years, no problems, and helped (along with other mods) get my 107whp (mustang dyno) so ghetto doesn't mean no power or no reliability

For me a full 2" CAI wasn't enough
