2nd gen ISR mod success PICTURES!!

Today I took a long lunch (4 hours) because (to the boss) I had car trouble, ( to you guys) I couldn't wait to finish the ISR mod I started yesterday. Its all done besides painting and man is it nice! I had the muff shop weld the pipe thread nuts to the outside of the pipe because I didn't like the Idea of having to explain to my wife why we have to pay to tear down the motor to retreive a nut caused by another one of my great ideas.

5" of rubber hose (I went to a boat shop and they had to charge me for a foot) $15
vacum hose fittings, hose clamps and pipe thread nuts $15
dryer ducting $10
muff shop pipe, welds and bends $20
At least $10 in gas running around trying to scrounge up allt he necassary components.

TOTAL $70

I just took some pics and i'll get them scanned in tomorrow but can I just post them? If not can somebody host them for me please.

RESULTS:

I love the added bark and freeway driving is much smoother. Less downshifting on passes etc.

In the second one you are looking through my airbox & fender and can see the carpet in my carage. I will be doing the deckplate mod before the rainy season though

mycotopian-

what are you gonna use for your deckplate mod, because, to my knowledge, the actually deckplate mod cant be used for our 2nd gen air boxes

Doink if you look at the second pic you can see where he drilled a round hole in the bottom of the airbox. I don't see how he's going to open and close the deckplate though once it's back in the truck since it'll be under the airbox against the fender.

yeah, i saw that, but i mean, it looks as if it would be too much of a hassle to unscrew and such when you wanted the deckplate on, or not. yaknow?

I was actually thinking about mounting the deckplate to the fender to prevent the airbox from chugging water if its extremly rainy or I am going through water. I want to mount it so that I can just reach up in my wheel well and install/ remove the plate.
