DIY Ghetto 3800 Intake

Ghetto 3800 intake. What I did was I sawed off the bit from the stock fiero intake piping, shaved the inside of the FieroStore K&N Intake filter and simply attached the filter side of the stock fiero intake tube to the throttle body. Just a temporary mod till i have enough money for a Weapon R intake.
And yeesss, i did clean off the rust before putting it on

Save some time and money and go with a good K&N filter in the wheel well and use ABS piping to connect to the engine, cheaper and does not conduct any heat or just use the factory V6 air box and get rid of the restriction in the wheel well with a piece of tubing.
If you need any other help with the swap let me know. Dan

That's Ghetto all right....how long do you plan on using it? I'm worried that it might just fall off during use or have a bad seal since there is nothing hard to clamp to.
Try putting a small section of pvc pipe under the clamp if you haven't already. That should get you more time.
