Have a 2005 six speed coupe, would like to get a little more power. I have a SRT TB and when I change it out I would like to add a CAI if I can find a nice used one.
The plan build a play car with all used parts?!?

Good luck with that.


Most of us who have added the CIA are not parting with it. Maybe a wrecked one will come along....


After you get one installed have a Eurocharged tune done. You will have to buy it new but,,,; Worth every penny

 

Like Franc said, unlikely you will find a used one, but a single CAI on a NA is not too hard to DIY, the major issue is mounting the IAT sensor.
If you leave the plastic in place ( 90 deg from the TB and the IAT housing ), then it's pretty easy to accomplish. Just some 3" aluminum tubing, 2 - 3" silicone 90 deg's, 2 - 3" silicone 45 deg and some 3" hose to poke through the radiator support.
Add in a K&N filter and you are done.
NOTE: get the 74 mm plastic 90 and IAT housing from a E55 or C55 MB.
