Here is the engine cover to fit the MB airbox for the V6 used on the Crossfire.

Good price.

I bought the whole assembly air box/front cover/tubes for less than that from:

Potomac German Auto
4305 Lime Kiln Road
Frederick, MD 21703-7500
(301) 428-8239 ‎

Maryland Store Search

I live minutes from them and have bought several MB parts for the Crossfire there. The plant managers name is Marcel (phone# 301-831-8151 ext. 200)... there is still some discretion that the Crossfire is an MB SLK so I'd recommend knowing which part # you wanted and what model it was off of.

 

What are the P/Ns for a LTD N/A. Air box parts, air tubes, etc.

 

I have bought from them in the past. Their parts come tagged LKQ. Good prices, but don't be in a hurry, very slow to ship.

I bought a larger air box than the N/A crossfire... It's a C320 air box as pictured below. The SRT filters are about an inch longer than the N/A ones where as the C320 airbox is longer and wider:





The top filter is the C320 the bottom filter is the Crossfire's

That's what I've heard.. luckily I live close by.

The front part of this two piece cover is part #A112 010 0467
Intake tubes, left #A112 094 35 82, right #A112 094 34 82
Filters, K&N's #33-2181
The intake tubes have to be modified to fit through the radiator support holes if you decide to use them.

Thanks for the P/Ns. You mention modifying the pass through point of the air tubes by the radiator. do you have to cut these and/or remove the fitting that is on each side. Looks like you would need to do some cutting? what do you reccommend?

 

No cutting for me, I removed those plastic fittings and I will get the intakes through. The passenger side is OK for size but the driver side is too small.

 

Would be nice if the designer had made room for some big air tubes. Guess I'll start looking for the parts.
Thanks

 

The Needswings Devil Horns are about the most sanitary way to squeeze the piping through the core support, and apparently they assist lamniar effect, thus helping the engine breathe slightly better. They've been on my short list to purchase for a year now, just have never done it.

At the moment, my passenger side tube is passed through the core support via some 3" fuel hose, but the tube on the driver's side stops just short of the support. It sucks in hot air ever so slightly, so I try to combat this by driving as fast as possible at all times.

The 320 box is a substantial increase over the N/A box. With K&N filters, the thing breathes quite nicely.

 

I'll have to see if I can locate a set of NW Devil Horns. Thnaks for the feedback.

Oh man that filter looks huge compared to the other one. Was the C320's airbox also a simple bolt on? i can't decide between getting one of these or the normal slk airbox. Any recommendations?

 

c320 hands down. Using the SLK320 cover will give you no advantage, performance wise. James

 

I bought one several years ago. It is now hanging on my shop wall next to my TR3 sign as decoration. No reason to install. Live play and learn. gary



Good pric

 

These Airboxes just push on with identical spring clips to the Crossfire OEM airbox, no modifications are necessary.
