filter side of the airbox, by the seal clamp, 1.1/2 inch holes, positioned at 3,6, 9 o'clock, also removed the rubber joint between the airbox and the side of the fender well, this is a poor mans "cold" air intake mod

I have a 2004 Eddie Bauer with the old 2-valve 5.4L and I get @ 17.5 on the highway @ 70 mph, @ 14.6 around town unless I let it idle excessively, which drops it down to 13.6.
