So if someone can have a aftermarket air cleaner installed in there truck why do people chew me out for doing a lid flip? Does it not achieve the same job without aftermarket air cleaner.

Much appreciated I'll avoid lid fliplid flip is not helping any you are sucking hot are thats no good aftermarket air intakes can be good but if they do not have a box or heat shield(s) they are no good your lid flip will also make your air filter get dirty faster the factory ducting from the core suport to the iner fender is very restrictive and should be removed also get rid of the resonator/silencer get some tubing to go from the fender to your air cleaner or make your own air intake system the only true aftermarket cold air intakes for these trucks are made by volant and they are not cheap and are starting to get hard to find
there is a exception to this though if got a old carbed engine or after market efi system on some thing that came factory with a carb go a head and use some thing like this on it yes it will get more warm/hot air then cool/cold but it will look good https://www.ebay.com/itm/134895037813?itmmeta=01HVMWT4NMF5V4RS7V8H7X3D4W&hash=item1f685eed75:g:IMMAAOSwVFZlp8Lm:sc:ShippingMethodStandard!88007!US!-1&itmprp=enc:AQAJAAAA4JizaUfV2X8D1jilOECt4zhdUPwdaiE2TPBSKLipfciB4bJ2Z2RkBvD4/E+AKgdG/WrsHZ0bj2eJMDzQAV/HdPcGKJLuJhkfnDL5xhHIT9byUf1RcpyMlqWkSgUdhfd4dMZHBQeRibpvtnE12BGVM+sUoPO3Cak+lvo2W47IsE4qXvmP+/60tKyIWY3YwM+SU3CZXj22CGv02IGvOjtOLj8h5nfRnoT5KlifMPoS7DGUDzUsZNJSUcR/rPNHDaqo5iGrEd8FBGkK6M5HEhiGUTtKH0cDbS/WwD6mRkv491ne|tkp:BFBM-sronN1j
this video shows why lid flip is bad and dose nothing it also tells why it is some times okay to use a open element air cleanerthe reason that they are okay to use is because they get more are then these ever did https://www.ebay.com/itm/404926052798?itmmeta=01HVMWY8JKKPB8VE8C1FEERE18&hash=item5e477939be:g:0fIAAOSwne5mHfat&itmprp=enc:AQAJAAAA0DuVKQ4/FXIXumhNl8cQSyACGfB+pQaslxdtoSjorLaNge2oUk/XE9nln0ctLZ8ud3ZHG1teiOCKzPXBmdLHbGWgrjZgjdDdeb5qFxp1GVes1bhX4bscw87Z9j8FUS1eNb9MrrRtfAL/UoXeRGVSkeO6PBH+gNvzJYX6QMudOX2vkXRAB0r8LIulrzPqj73zw1Q93wV0GIDYdA6C4iHZi6FtdXvlRJkmPU7Q8CR7d2aKJfFRLv+NYlK0jU10SNtirJ+QZyE+gFi23yjy4FptXqU=|tkp:Bk9SR7CJ-ZzdYw
