Would have taken me 15 minutes to do, but I lost the 3 inch coupler I bought, and had to go to Home Depot to get another. Used a floor model Belt Sander to do 95% of the shaping, and then used a Random Orbital Sander to clean up the edges that were still rubbing. Fun Project, had the bug to buy a CAI, gonna stick with stock intake now.
but the best part is that you can still run your paper one for now

yup, no CEL, even if you don't reset the ECU (unhook the battery for a bit)
I recomend resetting the ECU though

Didn't notice any thing really, but I had all ready had the K&N filter since I got the truck. My tires are too loud to notice any difference in sound while driving but I can hear a difference just reving it up.
Cool mod for the money, and I'm hoping for some MPGs maybe.
This is a great mod. Definitely feels stronger on the top end. The hardest part was just time consuming. Getting the pipe to fit into the fender. I did this mod, removed the silencer, and put a K&N at the same. I am very glad I did this mod. Totally worth the $13!!
