A cold air intake is going to run you $200+. If you want a 'short ram' intake, just take your stock air box off and bolt the filter you have to your MAF.

You still have to have the mass air flow sensor. Does yours not work or something?

Yes. The MAF has to send a signal to the ECU or your car won't start (at least it shouldn't). My intake makes a weird sound, too... it sucks air and it's loud. If I don't clean the filter in too long, it will sometimes wistle too. Sounds good at WOT, though!

Mine always make that ringing sound it never stops till i take my foot off the gas and it sound good with the K&N 6' filter
