Is it possible to make a....

For those people that have ditched their stock air box for a CAI did it look like it was possible to make a Cold Air Box? Simlar to what comptech makes for the integra. Could you cut off the resonator and add another plastic extension to maybe make a ram air effect or something. And that way you only need to spend the $50 for a drop in K&N filter. Can somebody take some pics of the stock airbox and piping for me. I don't want to take mine all out if it isn't going to work.

Hmmm it does look like it would be possible then. Just use some dryer hose or plastic tubing to extend from the bottom of the box into the wheel well. I'm sure that it will increase the noise, but i'm wondering how much more air flow will be attained. Does anybody see any possible negative effects from doing this?
