what intake? i would return the intake because you won't really get any real performance gain I'm my opnion, and that will save on cost for a hood. the one intake kit that i would like is a home made one like this, http://www.ericsxj.com/intake/intake.htm or there is a company now making a pretty clean kit almost identical. its not what your asking for, but i had a cone filter on the truck, and without a shield its pointless and didnt get any seat of the pants increase. right now i just have the factory box, enlarged the whole in the front a whole lot and AFE filter. but in stock location your still getting warm air, and in deep water its not the best of location..
