Uh oh, did someone say search? <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/ignore.gif" alt="" /> j/k

No, the Tundra one won't work... At least not without modification.

I think Downey may be the only one out there... It's an adapter plate & 8" conical K&N. The adapter plate connects directly forward of the mass airflow sensor. I'm running one; Have been for a while; Works great for me.

I belive Downey is it. From time to time, I've seen someone selling it on Ebay, but don't recall the brand name.

If you want to do it cheap, you could just buy the standard 4" cone filter, and use a zip tied to hold it after the air sensor. I've bought a basic cone filter for my Integra GSR last year. Before putting it on the Integra, I decided to play with it to see if it would fit the T. It does well, just doesn't look all that great. But the filter was only like $20 from Walmart. Anyway, I took it off and put it back on my Integra. I may get another one in the future.

OEM filter and air-box will give you the best performance and protection.
Consider adding a R.A.P.S. for a little ram-air performance.

Hee. All it is another duct from a car with pool hose coupled to it. I guess, it connects to the airbox where the intake elbow is? I'd be leary with this if you go in any water...

Looks like someone a(link on the page) came up with putting a DC fan (Electric Supercharger) on an intake to blow air into the intake too!

Reminds me once, I was playing with a turbine engine scale model. What was interesting is that the fins/blades are angled (pitched) in a way that incoming air accellerates the next set. Too bad the auto industry never thought of making a smaller scale for its intake. Too much engineering to make those bearings small and efficient...

deckplate mod , is another option , and with the cap you can be safe in mud and water , if installed correctly . im still thinking about making a plexiglass deflector to try and get as much cooler air vs warm engine air in to the air box .

The stock setup already brings cool air in.
Doesn't the deckplate really just sound like more power?
It can't really do much on a stock engine with stock computer running at the normal low rpms.
