hey i cant see how i could do it on a first gen, and there are no write ups for it, has anyone done it?

 

Try something similar to this... https://www.yotatech.com/~corey/tech...irbox/joey.htm

 

Or you can just buy a maf adapter and use a cone filter attachment. So you dont need the airbox anymore.

 

wow i looked right over that write up, i didnt think itd work cuz that one is the 3.0 liter, but it sounded like itd work.

he suggested getting a k&n drop in filter, i most likely will sooner or later

 

i thought about doing that too, do u have a link or ne thing with more info?

 

It's just drilling holes in the airbox. It will work with any vehicle that has an airbox.

 

i took the spoiler thing out and can already tell a difference in sound, i duno if im guna drill holes yet tho

 

heres one of them installed on a ranger.

As I'm sure you saw, the 22re just doesn't have enough room on any of its sides for the larger 4" deck plates. I've been thinking about trying a 2 inch abs drain outlet end. The kind that you screw a cap on to. The deck plate mod is better then just drilling crazy holes everywhere due to the risk of water ingestion.

oh yeah ive noticed

hm thats pretty cool, i might have to think about that

 

I was thinking on doing the deckplate mod on my truck. Just wondering, are there any issues I should be worried about getting it inspected in virginia? Thanks

 

Dont buy those cheap cone filters off ebay, they are complete chit. When I got mine, I could see through the filter. I had it on my truck for a week and it messed up my MAF. Straight to the trash it went. Dont make the mistake I made....

 

No, you are only increasing airflow not messing with any of the engine or emissions controls.
I have never heard of anyone having a problem before with this.
