air intake

Would Like Some Help!
I Have A 95 Dodge Ram 1500 With A 5.2l Engine Looking To Install My Own (home Made) Air Intake, Any Ideas? I've Been Reading Around And Heard I Could Use A 3" Pvc Pipe With A Coulping And Install A Outer K&n Filter To The Front Next To The Radiator.
My Question Is Do I Need To Relocate The Iat Sensor?

Any Help From You Dodge People Would Help...

The kits ave very chep on online auction sites. Building your own will probally do more harm them good. Alot of research went into some of the name brand products. Cant discount that.

i never did get the idea behind the cold air intake. i mean it's still in the hot engine compartment. at least the oem air box is connected to the fender or radiator support where there is some air circulation. i think if you were going to get a cold air intake you might as well upgrade your hood as well to get some air in the compartment.
