Default Motor Sound Airbox

So I'm looking for a factory motor sound air box? Anyone have one for sale? I did a search in the classifieds but didn't see anything. Let me know

Cheers,
Ryan

It is the cover, that is different. You can buy new for about $120.

Ok, they did go up. But Suncoast is still cheaper than the guy cleaning out his garage, with the "low prices"...

And for the $100 I paid for MS cover, I'm keeping my stock bit intact.

Hey, Ed - does the MS box really make a difference in sound?

Default Drill it

Yes, you can make your own stock airbox into the equivalent Motor Sound airbox with a 1" Forstner bit.

Yes, it does make a difference in the sound.

Note the complete MS package includes different mufflers.

Have fun.

Will it make a noticeable difference with stage IIIs?

The intake is pretty loud at 4K+, I've no problem hearing it with RSR muffs.
