Sweet video!
Supermodulation, the tuner from the Colorado forum suggested the stock intake system was best left alone except for the inlet to the filter box. I made a modified inlet that still pulls air from the inner fender. I also sent him the ECM and throttle body for upgrading while I had the engine apart for a valve job. It's an '04 5-speed and while it is well used at about 175,000 miles it runs much better than it did new.

He would say that since i used to make these intakes.. I no longer refer any of my customers to him due to his unprofessionalism. Why'd you only do the head and not pull the motor and rebuild it properly?

@@BadlandIndustries Didn't need rings, just valve guides & seals. I figure it will last longer than I will. I bought it over 19 years ago and it was always going to be my last PU truck. Only downside, it won't pull the Bobcat. The only mods were air inlet, pre-cat, head cut a bit, Supermod tune, ported TB, big battery, & custom back bumper. Best mpg a bit over 31. This spring I have the suck job of pulling the dash to replace the evaporator, compressor, and condenser. While I have the dash out, I may install one of the Rock Auto carpets & upgrade the seats. I'm thinking some Accord seats would be comfy.
Can you please send me some specs of what you used for those and what kind of check valve and where can get it
When are you selling those resonator delete tubes again?
I’m having trouble understanding you ,where you get fresh air for the pcv. That vacuum line from the manifold sucks air and the one way valve points in the opposite direction. Where is the crankcase getting air from?

The airbox outlet appears to be just as small as the part you discarded, so I wonder if that really has any affect.

The first few years were smaller than the latter. Anything smaller than the throttle body is still a restriction.
so basically from what i can figure, if you setup something like the 2.0 version, but with a oil catch with a breather before dumping it down away from the engine on the intake side of the engine would be the best DIY possible? still haven't ever experienced any lean codes from it?
