I was thinking about taking my drill and putting some monster sized holes in my plastic airfilter cover and leaving it hooked up to the fender intake. Thoughts?? '04 Cobra Convertable!!

That's dumb. I cut off the mounting plate and problem solved. 2000 Contour SE 2.5L ATX - Toreador Red 2001 VW Golf GLS 2.0L MTX - Tornado Red Buy my possessed VCR!!

The (IIRC) 6" long filter with the 3.5" inner diameter opening. $45 from Pep Boys, they ordered it for me and it arrived about a week later. 2000 Contour SE 2.5L ATX - Toreador Red 2001 VW Golf GLS 2.0L MTX - Tornado Red Buy my possessed VCR!!
