    i made mine outta 3" galvanized bath pipe and it increased low to mid range torque:) the only thing that really matters is good flow and filter.

    a lot of it has to do with the filter you buy and how restrictive it is. Some Auto Zone/Pep Boys filters might as well be an air box in themselves.
