When I get the mount made it will be right at the grille to pull fresh air in. I know I know it's not a true cold air intake I guess.

The factory air cleaner pulls from the same location, air behind the headlight

looking at the size of stock, it might breath better?

The difference is negligible at best. The stock airbox is pretty efficient.

Finished up my cargo shelf that I've wanted since I put a 32" spare tire back there. Cost me $42 and about 4 hours. I'm no carpenter, but I can sit on it and it doesn't bow...so mission accomplished. Added D ring tabs to tie stuff down as well.
