What Intake boot should I use for a cold air intake on my 300e???
 
Hello Board,

I am in the process of adding a cold air intake to my 300E. I wanted to know what type of boot to use to cover the throttle body. I know that it should come from a Porsche or VW, but I do not know what model or year boot to buy. Can anyone help me with this??

I also wanted to know if the Ford Focus cold air intake kit was still the best bet for my car ( 300E).

You can use an 80's VW Rabbit CIS boot. I would just using a K&N drop unless you are planning on routing "cold air" to the filter. You are going to get high under hood temps in the summer in Florida. I know, I live in Florida.

No more ghetto rigged cold air intake

Attn: 2phast

Scoop
107.042
MB Part number
000 094 3011
for 107 280SL

Bellow
MB part number
110 094 07 91
Mann 39 000 40 988

So basically this is how it works, you take off your air cleaner on your 190E or 300E with the M103, M102 engine, and then you put the scoop on, which is an MB part, and then the bellow you put that on, then you can hook up your k&n cone filter without that stupid dryer / ricey piping. So you have all OE stuff.

So whoever does this first, post pictures! I went through the trouble to look through the junk yards with my friend until we could find the parts...so there you go.
