1991 explorer sport
Hey guys, I have a 91 sport and was wandering if anyone new of a way for me to make an intake or a place to buy one. I have been to several local auto parts store's and trying to make one from the materials they have will not work, k&n or spectra does not make any to buy for it so I have no Idea what to do. I drive no less than thirty miles a day on the interstate (commuting to and from college) and could certainly use the improved gas miles. So please if anyone has any advice as to how to make one fit, I would greatly appreciate it, thanks guys!:

i went to Auto Zone and got there crome intake pipe and started to build my own from what they sold.I used a rubber seal from my stock one for the MAF sensor to just a K&N cone filter.
I can see a lil differance in take off and gas mpg but not much but it still looks good.Hope this helps as i am still new on this stuff i just wanted to share what i have done
 












Don't know if you're still looking but this

kit is fantastic. Very fast (20 min.) install and works great. Opens up the throttle a lot and adds a nice sound. The stock intake tubing is fine, it's not really very restrictive so unless you just like the looks there's not much need for a whole kit. I added this kit and a throttle body spacer

and noticed a significant increase in throttle response, and of course, it sounds much better.
