This mod didn't make my truck louder as far as the muffler goes. The only thing you can hear is more air getting sucked into the engine. This really isn't even that noticable unless you're listening for it or the hood is open.

 

I'll be putting pics of my mod on here later tonight(Friday)

 

thanks XLT-Sport for the info. cant wait to see your mod pics.
BroncoAZ thanks for posting your pics on your mod very helpful,and a very nice clean job
one more question is there anything you can mod on the air box after the airfilter?

THANKS,Marco

 

Marco,

The next step down the line is porting and polishing the throttle body, or possibly replacing that acordian section of plastic tubing with aluminum tubing. I did the throttle body mod before I did the airbox mod. I haven't messed with different tubes yet. Search the V6 forum for throttle body mod. It's fairly easy, and might add some throttle response.

It's hard to judge my mods at 7000 ft elevation. The only things that makes performance up here is a turbo or supercharger. I can say that at 2000ft elevation my truck whoops all over my buddy's identical truck with no mods, and I light up a tire frequently.

There is a gutting the MAF mod that talleywacker has done, but he said that one is definately a warranty voider, so I haven't done it.

The next step is the superchip and muffler, and maybe some headers. I'm debating on sending the money to the credit cards, or to Desert Rat for a set of JBA headers... I guess with the new airdam and lights on the way I'll pay some bills and get the headers later...

 

BroncoAZ thanks for all your help. please post a pic of your truck when you get your PIAA airdam. i really want to get one on my truck but have yet to see a good pic of one on a 4x2.

 

Here is a front view of my modified air box.

 

Here is a side pic of the air box

 

Here is a pic of my new fog lights...

I hope the air box pics help.

 

glad everthing has worked out so wll for your truck.i think the sucking sound of air coming through the filter is kinda cool. when i get my new exhaust i probably wont be able to hear it as much.

 

what kind of exhaust are you gonna get? I'm thinking about getting a gibson sept side single out.
