My car still has no left front brake pads and a bad gas leak but i got bored today so i threw together a CAI. Total cost to me $1.85 for a 1 litre bottle of pepsi.The rest of the stuff i had lying around. I used a intake tube of a N/A 2.5,1litre bottle of pepsi with the ends cut off , a cone filter i had lying around
and....Ducttape!

It doesn't look to good for a DD, the filter is going to get wet/dirty FAST!
I did something similar on my 3.0 na Spirit and made a huge difference at the track, mine was Ram Air though. I had the filter just like yours in a stockish place(where your pop bottle is) then a funnel cut and taped around it with a hose that ran under and another funnel to scoop the air(supported w/ zip ties of course)

I had my filter placed in a similar location on my neon N/A build... worked out very well. Just don't go driving through lakes and rivers, you'll be fine

I don't plan on going bogging in puddles  . And where it is sitting it really shouldn't get that wet.

Duct tape increases the man mojo of any car by at least 5 points.
