Default Thoughts on a Zombie intake?

I found this, forgot where, but I thought I would get everyone's opinion on it.

It seem to me to be a good deal, and the powdercoating is nice, but worth getting? I don't know.

Looks like every other "filter-on-a-tube" out there.

Someone selling a commonly-made (and easy to make) intake.

It's not going to help anything unless your factory intake box is letting dirt pass through the lid joint.

Thanks, I need to replace my air filter sometime soonish, it is getting dirty, so I am looking at options, I think I will just go with a stock filter.

Be sure to get the Motorcraft filter from Ford. The WIX (NAPA/CARQUEST) filters do not seal between the lid and lower section of the airbox. As a matter of fact, if you want my "DIY 6637" intake, I'll just send it to you. It needs a new filter, but you can have it if you want it. It's simply a piece of 4" exhaust pipe.....

I don't think I can say no to that... I don't really have an address yet, well not until the 24th of january, so it is hard to get anything in the mail. Ill send you my new address as soon as I have it. Thanks! , and how much are the filters to replace?

I don't know how much the filters cost a lay-person....

I get them for cost through NAPA (it's not who you are, it's who you know) and I think I pay $38 each.....but they tend to last longer than the regular box filters because of the surface area. The only thing that I need you to make sure of is that your intake system currently looks like this (not mine, it's too dirty) :

Should I worry about getting a cover for it? IDK what they would do, but I am in texas so it might get dusty sometimes...
