I may be wrong but it looks like it will fit SRT rather then limited or base. Am I wrong or right?

Wrong, I think. It's sitting in a 3.2L N/A Crossfire.

Is it somebody here?

Thanks Max

Is this one piece like the one in the crossfire? I guess the silver pipe made me think SRT. Thanks again.

This cover is one piece but really only suited to anyone with an N/A Crossfire that has a CAI. It cannot be used as a replacement for the stock cover unless you have a CAI as it not an airbox type cover. I had one of these when i was running a single CAI, but now have the airbox type with K&N's

Question Re: Ebay Mercedes Engine Cover

BYE THE BYE, what is a good price for a set of two 6 or 8 cyl MB airbox filters? Better bought through MB or auto parts store?
Thanx,
PACEMAKER

Go K&N - you wont regret it! I used to be sceptical, but i put mine in over the weekend and I'm getting the same overall response from the car that I was with my single CAI - if not more - that said I have routed the intake pipes from the airbox to sit right behind the grille and I did the grille mod to let as much cold air through as possible.

What if you did NOT use the k&n and just made a 90 degree turn in back of the front grill there and added to cone filters? Also I am a nubi, what is this mod for letting more air in that you speal of. I just bought an 04 coupe 45k miles 6 speed maunual..PS I love this car!

coolZero,

Congratulations on the purchase of your Crossfire, welcome to the permagrin club - I've been a proud member for the last 3 months.

If you search for "grill mod" you will find a very well detailed thread on this modification by amx1397, will a few cuts to the stock grill it will allow more cold air to pass through.

You can indeed place a cone filter or 2 even, behind the grill, your set up is completely down to your own personal preference.

Happy modding!

I am thinking it must be someone that is, or was, on here since their other auctions are selling the TVT CAI and the TVT injectors.
