ebay intake

So i have a quick question, i was going to buy an intake for my friends car just because i thought it would be kind of funny. Is it possible for me to just buy an intake off of ebay and change the filter for a better one? Will the intake piping off ebay be sufficient in comparison to other name brand intakes?

It'll be funny as hell if you bought me a set of rim. I mean OT material funny.

I suggest using 2 or 3 pringle cans duct taped together with a HKS mushroom filter on the end. Hotness

PS, take pictures
