Default Gutted Airbox

I want to get a couple airboxes to gut for my two Montes. Does anyone have detailed instructions on how to do this? I see that guys have only cut the middle piece. I'm new to this mod and any help I could get would be helpful.

Imo, itd be easier to build yourself a real CAI..

Gutting the airbox will just lead to more turbulence. Theyre built to pass air thru smoothly and with a 4+ inch diameter, youre not gonna gain anything without completely re-doing the intake..

Sounds like a good idea. Anywhere I can get good ideas? I have the 3.4 in both cars.
