ok i want a cai in my 4cyl but no one sells one that i can find. i was thinking on buying a cheap 5.0 intake and just mount it in the fenderwell although theres on enough pipe from the throttle body to the mass airflow housing. where can i find or anyone seen a 4cyl cai.

I don't think anyone makes an actual cai for a n/a 2.3l . You could probably either make one yourself or adapt a 5.0l one.

The carbed 2.3 had a semi-cold air intake from the factory, but most of them have deteriorated now. It used a hose that fed from the inside of the fender to the breather. It is relatively easy to adapt that style to a true cai.
FI ones are a little more involved, but not too much. Flex hose can be done tastefully with some effort. I've seen some PVC ones that looked pretty good, too.
