Yes, unless you mod it to fit. I had the same cold-air as you and when I got the motor I had to cut in like to places to make it fit. Still running it cold-air but the piping is kinda small and I think its restriting me.

you buy the intake for the chasis not the motor. The one you have should be fine and might require a little modding to work.

Well, correct me if I'm wrong, but the piping for your CX is probably 2.5". The ITR is 3". How much of a difference does that make? I don't have a clue...

I'm sure you can probably hack at yours or add a 45 to make it fit if you don't feel like buying another one.

I did a pretty good job of totally rerouting my GSR AEM CAI and I'm an idiot.
