 Subject: "Deck Plate Mod"?

Message:
For all those who are tech saavy would this work if we did this to a 3.9 Litre V6 Airbox? My buddy did it to his Tacoma and he said it works great. Just curious if we could do the same thing?

I think he's talking about a 1" spacer between the TB & the Intake. It works great on old Carbed engines like 350's & up, I've heard from people on this board it does nothing for the Fuel Injected 3.9's.

It has something about drilling a 4inch hole in the airbox. I will get the link and put it on here asap.

OK
Yes will work the same allowing more air flow just
be sure you do not drill so any air enters
without going through the filter first

You could spend 18 bux at advence auto parts and get a 9x2 inch breather like this one on mine www.geocities.com/dakmopardoge/motor11.html. The only down side that I can thing of is that when your motor has been on for a shizzle long time it sucks in a lot of engine heat. But with the airbox gone it gives plenty of room for ignition upgrades!!

That looks like it would work, except like Larry said...make sure where you cut it, that incoming air still has to go through the filter. I like the design though. I don't think there'd be a "seat of the pants" improvement, but it looks like there would be SOME improvement.
