Thread: Worst thing you ever pulled out of air intake?

I saw another thread and got the idea to start this thread. So what is the worst thing you ever pulled out of a stock or modded intake? I pulled out a dead mouse, about 3/4 of an air box full of dogfood (different cars), and once a live mouse on my buddies car. That scared the **** out of me lol.

when i got my car it had rat poison zip tied all over the engine, does that count as f'ed up or what?

air box only the normal stuff, leaves dirt, water, in the trucks after going in to deep, bugs.

Pretty sure my GP had insulation (like the pink stuff) and fur of some sorts.

nothing gets stuck up there
open cone FTW!!

First thing I did when I got mine was take it home and rip off the stock intake and throw on a open cone, the whole box was filled with insulation a mouse turd. I was shocked it was even getting enough air to run! Lol

When i pulled my old stock intake box one time i found a big azz dead dragonfly lol.I still cant figure out how it got in there.

The Stock GTP i pulled out a dead Cardinal bird.....no idea how it got there.

Now my moms giant ass Surburban, we pulled out 5 dead mice, but that was in the intake tube that goes into the fender.

I found this in my intake, and I wasn't sure what it was:



But then it bit me, so I put it back.

Did you really find a Fast in your intake?

Yeah, and then it bit me, so I put it back.












































AKA No... I wish.

Cleaned mine out when I got it and found a few feathers (small ones) and the typical leaf pieces, dirt etc. I did find a business envelope in by the blower motor though.....made a heck of a sound when you turned on the A/C or heater.

Sand I guess.

My '97 had cigarette butts, a few wrappers, tons of sand, and leaves.

It's not an air intake but someone I know got into an accident with a Turbo 5th Gen Camaro and the turbo swallowed up the whole headlight.

well it wasn't all the way up there, it was just in the first inch of my inlet at the turbo, just a little blowby, just wish I had none.


Pretty crazy stuff some of you guys are digging out of your intakes.
