    I ended up paying about $50 for mine (came from a slightly earlier model Trooper - a 3.2 I think - so I couldn't use it - the opening for the intake is smaller) - that one should be fine though. You're basically buying a used MAF and getting the extra fuel rail, 6 injectors and FPR for free (price an injector and you'll see you're doing well) - not to mention the extra manifold itself...

    That is possible, but the rebuild kit is not free, and if I need a tranny and I screw this one up, now I need to buy a new one again, as well as the labor for install and removal.

    That is what I was thinking, I will let you guys know when I pick it up, the lister hasn't responded as of yet. I asked if he had any other parts off the axiom. It would be nice to get some other stuff, starter, AC compressor (I think is the same as the trooper, so I know how to work that out), alternator and so on.
