I've made several that worked OK, but man I honestly would hold off until you can swing the $$$ for the AMW unit. It's a quality piece that works very well.

It's just my opinion, but I've been there and done that. I'm glad I bought the real deal.

Good luck to you though.

It needs to be sealed or you won't pull vaccuum from the crank like designed and you'll have unmetered air (behind MAF) going into your intake.
