Home made is the only way you get one..
I made mine (for turbo) from aluminium tube and a cone filter...
Some guys made theirs out of ducting...
Someone will be by soon with more...

Good question. I have a Banks Turbo with the K&N filter. I too would be interested in a 'cold air intake'. Are there any pictures out there to look at?

Cooler air from in front of the radiator does better.

Kevin,

Nice series of pics in your gallery. I'll get to work on mine. By the way, I've been in your part of BC a couple of times and love the area. Thanks for posting the pics

It was disconnected in that picture, it's the black rubber hose that is running up over the top of the compressor housing. Mine never had a red hose.
