I just hope it works. Driving around town and in the mountains yesterday felt better but it could just be due to the filter location. I'm going to fine-tune this thing a little more. Worse case, I will go back to an OEM intake and just make my own washer fluid reservoir.

Haha nice! They have aluminum tape for duct work that might make it a little cleaner looking if it bothers you. The stuff I used was 3m and it seems thicker than regular foil got it in the dryer vent section at hardware store.

Thanks for the tips. Did you build one of these too? Any suggestions or results?

Did some more work on the misfit intake. Bought another rubber reducer for the downstream portion. Then built another heat shield to go over the whole thing. I would like it to fit tighter but I also want to make sure there is enough air space around the filter so it isn't starved for air. Up the road, I may learn how to do fiberglass and just build a box.

It looks like Chipotle pooped in your engine compartment

Got to do a really cool trail today, I made a thread about it: https://wayalife.com/showthread.php/46858-Bunce-School-Road-T33-Crash-Site
Very rocky, more than we would have liked, but really got to test out the new axle. Only had to use the lockers once and they worked flawlessly. And the Coopers are amazing tires, really stick to the rocks. I had a tree hit my door and luckily it buffed right out for the most part.
I took a hard hit on my DIY tire carrier and thought I bent it. Turns out it was a weld that cracked where the hitch extension goes into the main hitch. I purposefully left the pin in when I built it and just tack-welded the rest, so I'm not surprised. A floor jack and a new weld had it all fixed up.
And here's some pics from today:

Lol. The Chipotle air intake is working well. Even my wife noticed it. The foil may not be necessary, but I'm leaving it for now. I think the main issue was getting the filter closer to the cooler air where the factory intended it to be.
It was fun. We originally bought this vehicle cheap so we wouldn't worry about trail carnage, however we take pride in our vehicles and it still annoys me, lol. OCD.
It is worth seeing but not easy to get to IMO. However I'm running a unibody jeep with 33s.
Thanks.
