no you got all the stuff how to make..
1remove top of air box
2put backing plate into the existing air inlet hose
3put the filter on the backing plate
4 tighten clamps
thats it leave the top of the box in a safe place but it will not get wet and will pull more air..
this will alow for a faster spool and a loader turbo. any q's just ask fpr pics just tx 13092589035

BHAF and stock air horn.... Best buy for the money... Washable filters are a joke...and K&N is just a name... You can not beat the bhaf!

I have no wait time... Every auto zone can get one, or local diesel shop... They are plentiful around here... I even thought becoming a dealer for them and sell filters all over...

I can give ya my email thru PM you can send me pics that way if you want me to. They only think I dislike is how big that sucker is, but I agree with the article and most likely will go that route.

Well guys I can honestly say Im not to sure about the BHAF, I like the idea of a washable filter here is my reasons why. I live out in farm country and in the spring winds exceed 60 mph and truck breath nothing but dusty air. I agree that their problems are that the elements can tear, and you can over oil them. I talked to a deiesel shop I trust and they use to run the filters, reason they quite is because with the amount of dust we drive in espicially when I go out to fix a tractor in a freshly plowed field the dust builds up fast, I usually get minature sand dunes under my hood, plus I also have a K&N for my stock set up and I pulled the enitire unit out and checked the turbo and its spotless, nothing like shown in the article. Im not saying hes wrong! and I still agree with him, but I rather spend 40 bucks on a washable filter rather than one that I have to replace 4 times a year. I also dont plan keeping a Washable filter forever, I know they wear just like everything else, but I just want something that makes my truck breathe betters and is easy to maintain can clean. Im not shunning away from the BHAF but it seems that it may be more for the high way trucks and not farm and ranch trucks. But maybe someone can prove me wrong. Just a thought I had, my biggest problem is I want a shield or something to hold it down that doesnt look like S*** I can go and look around for some sheet meatal and cut out a shild and by some half inch foam to put on top and paint it blue..
