Default if i put a performance filter on

if i put a performance air filter on my 1999 cummins with just the stock turbo tube will this just pull in hot air from the motor or will i be fine. and would it be easy to make my own intake box.

I did the same thing. Put the ring back in and the filter back on and its just about right.

Removing the ring is cool at first... After a while the turbo get pretty annoying tho, esp on long trips
