There is no way a busted DP intake is worth $150 even if it's fixed. A brand new one is $260 from Summit with free shipping.

I take it that it is cast aluminum. If so easy fix for someone whom knows what they are doing. Problem is a lot of people don't know what they are doing. Better off spending $100 more for a new one that wasn't beat.
