" Flip - Tie "
Here is a cold air induction you can do yourself with your stock parts. You will need a washable filter (K&N or Green) and some Tie Wraps.
Essentially it is the bottom and filter frame of the stock airbox flipped over, fitted into a hole cut into the radiator shroud. All held together tightly using Zip Ties and the stock clamps.

Okay, I don't no what a Honker is but I do understand the concept of getting cold air to the engine. I've seen similar setups and couldn't figure why people did them. I thought it was for looks. Does this also help with overheating issues?
