no, they changed. they don't offer it seperately. however, what do you guys think...i bought the k&n ru3530 from ajusa and i'm thinking about this http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Racing-Mystique-Contour-air-intake-Cougar-V6-Mondeo-SVT_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ6763QQitemZ8003412072QQrdZ1 for their maf adapter and intake pipe. let me know what you guys think. I looked around and saw that the 85 mm adapter...3.3 inches or so doesn't fit perfectly to the 3530. This one is 89 mm so it should fit better. The one from Michigan up by 5V7 Dr1V3R is a 3" maf adapter, but it is cheap at 17.99

if you ask for just the maf adapter and nothing else from www.ssd4u.com it is 27.00 shipped. sorry stilov for doubting you, originally they told me 60, but that was with the hardware as well. The maf is made of a mineral filled polyeurethane.

I'd stay away from the intake setup.




I got it for just the intake pipe.. put you have to do some drilling for the IAT sensor. And for a filter I replaced the one it comes with because it has hood issues..

Ill take pix tomorrow.. youll like how it looks no doubt.

Here they are of the cosmo..
I painted it with black hi temp engine paint. The heat shield is a my own lil creation of a rubbermaid trash bin (the engine $ bottom side is shielded with insulation) The filter is a ebay special because I was having many fitment issues my heatshild/filter/hood. I love the new filter, sure beats the K&N actually... (I know I was just as surprised) its the perfect ideal size for me. it may look like the airbox is small but that's just the top heat stripping, there's easily 1.5 inches on each side of the filter. Also the top of the filter draws air which was ideal since I cut out the hole even more in the fender for a larger cool air source. There's about 4.5 inches between the top of the filter and hole so there's alot of volume there. Also the airbox/trash bin is rolled with the inner fender so it's very deep.




I also painted the filter casing with the same paint used for the intake pipe to give it more of a uniform look.

Looks nice. I decided to go with the one from ssd4u.com though. I already bought the k&n from ajusa, but they sent the wrong one. Maybe you could pm me on how you made the heat shield though. out of a garbage can? what size? is that pipe insulation on the top of it?

No need to apologize...I am not the end all be all.

Glad you got a good deal. Like I said i used mine for a long time...I only got rid of mine b/c of my new turbo set-up...I am going with a larger MAF.

thank you for all the posts. but this is what i did ..i got the 3530 didn't fit right on the crap weapon r setup. went to trader horn and bought a 3 in. 90 degree black elbow. the k@n fits right on it nice and tight (like it should fit) moved the fuse box under the battery and now my filter is sitting where the fuse box waz at.. only spent 8 bucks at trader horn. for the elbow and one 3 in rubber coupller. works great and gets a lil bit colder air ..
