Anyone familiar with this CAI?


Found this no name CAI on Craigslist and I really like it. The guy wants 35 for it. I already have a bbk style CAI but it's just the tube from the tb to the maf and then I have a filter on the maf. This guys CAI is the other half that goes into the fender but it's not a bbk style. I really like it and am probably gonna get it minus the huge filter lol. Just wanted to know if anyone knew what kind it was. Thanks

It's a power pipe.
It doesn't have the Anderson label so it can be a copycat but you might need a river piece to make it work. Here's a link si you can see the full assembly

Just a note, But your BBK CAI and filter stay inside the engine compartment, This powerpipe I believe goes inside the fender through the "circle hole" right before the OEM airbox. Atleast thats what I'm thinking

Yeah he said it keeps the maf in the stock position but I'm gonna go check it out and see how it fits before I buy it. He said it would work with my bbk but we will see

Oh yeah that's it. Could I buy it and use it with the stock maf? If yes, then I'm just gonna get it, buy that angled coupler, and sell my bbk. Thanks for the link! I kinda thought it was an power pipe or a copy

Yea buy the angled coupler. This power pipe is a much better supporting mod than tht BBK.

I believe it'll work, yea.
You just have to get that rubber coupler. I'm sure if you give Anderson ford they'll sell you one.
If you wanna get a Bigger MAF for cheap that works, and works great, go pull a F2vf sensor out of a Sn95 5.0 or V6 and put the sensor in a 70mm tbird housing. ..
You can also find the sensor in crown Vic's and lincoln town cars

Ok cool. I'm just gonna use my stock maf for now. I just want to get rid of this hot air intake I have and this guy only wants 35 for his power pipe. And I can probably sell my bbk for a bit more than that. I just need to get an angled coupler and I almost wanna say that I saw some at autozone or o'rielly's.

Picked this up yesterday. The guy I bought it from didn't know too much about it. But it is definitely a quality piece and I'm pretty sure it's a real power pipe. Either way though, it's really nice and only cost me $35. I cleaned the filter real good today and cleaned the pipe up. Gonna install it tomorrow or saturday depending on if it's snowing or not
