Home Depot Intake Mods
I took the idea of a home mod (seen by others on this site) and
enhanced it with a removal/cleanable nylon house screen
I adapted a 4" dia coller out of the gutter section at Home Depot
and sanded it so it fit snug with the screen attached.
This way, I can pull it out and clean it while I clean my AFE ProGuard 7 drop-in panel filter.
I dont notice any performance gains, but I do hear the turbo whine a bit more since adding this mod and the AFE filter.
MPG seemed to have creeped up approx 1mpg also.
Should help with the EGT's when we tow our 5er again.
