That filter is a 6637, you need some 4in pipe and some clamps to run it. Its a good cheap intake, I run an AFE stage 2

It also promotes a bit of turbo whistle.

it's about the same. i have a afe filter that is almost the same as the 6637. the napa one is about 50 bucks and i paid 90 for my afe. it's washable too.

Hello I am a new user here but I did the DIY 6637 intake mod and man it woke my 7.3 up! I have a 38r that was freshly installed a couple days ago and man that 6637 just makes the turbo sound like a jet screaming! I now drive with my stereo OFF cause the turbo is music to my ears! Awesome just awesome is all I can say

Well that depends how elaborate you wanna go. You can get all you need from Home Depot.
The BHAF will take away from the stock look in the engine bay. The stock airbox has to be removed to make way for that big filter.

Input your inquiry into the "search" box above. Ya will get further info on your mod, and ya might even find pictures of that mod.
