Default Renegade is HERE! ( Crossfire )

The Renegade intake for the Crossfire is now a reality! Here are some pics of the first one, fresh from the mould.
Obviously it still needs machining etc, but its not far away now.

Those involved deserve praise for their efforts bringing this thing to fruition. Well done guys. I can't wait to get mine and enjoy the benefits of a 'proper' intake on the Crossfire for the first time.









I am not involved in any way with the manufacture of this part.

They had it listed a $460 for their pre-buy program, IIRC.

$460 is a dirt cheap peice considering...was thinking more like 6-800.
Id be interested in one if I had an 84. Coupled with some good heads, headers and a cam no reason that CF couldnt run hard!

I agree, the price is great, considering it is a low volume production and made in the USA.
