I think your talking about the BHAF. its not so much cold air intake as it is take in all the air intake . its a really big filter! drops right in.

5- go to NAPA. buy this filter: p/n FIL2790. this is known as a BHAF. remove the stock airbox and put this in it's place. bend up some sheet metal as a heat shield.

its off a thread on makin power your self

It is literally a big F'n air filter!

This is a 2790 on my own home made intake tube but they do fit on the end of the stock tube. Also keep in mind that their are various numbers passed around for the BHAF but they do not all flow the same

about $70 bucks from NAPA, and i think around $50on the net...but you also have to pay shipping...you can get a prefilter to help it last longer too...these are throw away filters but unless your driving in super extreme elemnets it should last a year or so
