Just don't use any duct tape! Autozone and other auto parts houses have piping, filters and connectors so you should be able to build something. Make sure it seals well and the MAF sensor is installed correctly.

IMO it's better to go with a known intake like the GMPP, Injen, etc....

I assume no SAI since it's an 05. Good luck with the maf placement! Get pics. But, x2 with the name brand intake.
