Exclamation Making intake? HELP HELP

Hey everyone,

I recently removed my stock airbox (intake resonator) it sounds okay, but I want to put in something to cover up the open hole a bit, I don't want to spend any money to buy a SRI.

I was wondering if anyone had any ideas as to what I could use to connect the open hole by the stock air filter to the stock intake tip that's beside the battery. I'm a noob, so any advice would be helpful.

Also, I haf a 2005 EX Auto.

I removed it because I wanted a better sound, I mean a D17 doesn't move anyway, I just want the car to sound better.

The sound you hear after removing that thing is pretty much the best you will get with out replacing to after market intake. Good luck on that one anway.

If you get a cheap intake from ebay PLEASE dont use the filter that comes with it. You will be sorry you did. Pick up somthing like the new AEM one or a good name brand one. Thos ebay ones are cotton and dont filter for crap.

you can get a cheapo SRI and get a filter from like advanced auto parts or autozone. at autozone they have the tubing for your "custom" intake. get some metal circular brackets and then hook it up. usually i don't like doing things the "ghetto" way as someone put it, but its your ****. do what you want. i suggest a real SRI though.
