Marauder/CVPI airbox, in a box

[85crownHPP]

Got a filter in mine, the tube is hanging on so far!
I also discovered one of my motor mounts is getting a little soft. mmmmmm... goodie gumdrops

the local yard is asking $75 for an 05+ cvpi one. Is that a fair price? or should I find one elsewhere. I have a rig setup in my brain to use the regular cvpi box and still use my maf I have now.

I am doing a few upgrades over the winter and this is one of the issues, my warm air intake sucks at the strip (hot laps own me). So I want to switch to a setup that draws from outside the engine bay.

The outlet of the airbox is roughly 3 1/2 inches.

That price isn't bad if it comes with the air tube, compared to CVN/ebay prices.
As far as the junkyard is concerned, the only 'real' value is the MAF sensor, they may drop the price if you tell them you don't want it. It just slides out of the neck like a little cartridge in the CVPI one.

If you want to spend the cheese, K&N has Cold Air intake for whales that will work with the inner fender mod. Its 300 dollars or so, but Vicky is getting one whenever I get around to putting in a new motor.

Is a 2002 cvpi worth getting the set up off of? Only asking cause I can get one fairly cheap.

Depends what you want out of it... it will still let you be rid of the fugly stock airbox and have the different-and-mysterious appeal, but it's hard to say if it flows more air than the stock setup.

I wouldn't waste my time or one dollar on anthing 2003 or older.

It might look better than the air box on your average box, but thats it!

Use 04+CVPI, and I would suggest 05+, as I recall the 04 tube weights a ton.

I've got either an 05 or 06 tube and air box on my 91 and it looks and works great!

And the tube is the hard plastic one that doesn't weigh much.
