Yes, CIS airbox bottom from a volvo turbo... junkyard upgrade ;)
But, there is a problem. The position that the CIS is oriented in the 4kQ would put a cone filter in to the headlight assembly. Having said that, you could always route some tubing and get a true CAI with a filter down in the fender well or something...

LOL...I'm running that Volvo lower half...but the metering assembly needs to be flipped around so that the plate is near the headlamp, requiring some bending of the feed/return fuel lines, reorganizing the injector lines, and custom mounting brackets...but it can be done! Sounds nice too! And no more dealing with the stock airbox when changing filters...sigh of relief...
