Got my hands on an intake from a friends totaled civic with a no name filter on it. I want to throw a K&N cone filter on it but ive been seaching the site and they have a HUGE selection in all difference shapes and sizes.

Closest one i was was able to find was this one but im not sure

I tried searching but couldnt get anything. If anyone knows i just need the part # and a good retailer. Thankxx

 

Dont most "universal" style filters with a flange inside diameter of 3 in (76 mm), work for an aftermarket intake. Alot of people use RU-2820 universal filter.

 

3 in is what you want. Measure the tube though to make sure it is in that neighborhood. Remember too, you can stretch the filter inlet slightly too.

 

I just put a K&N filter on my intake piping and that inlet was very stiff. It had trouble just getting over the 3" piping.

I forgot the part number, but the 6 inch long and 4 inch diameter filter is a nice compact filter that will fit your 3 inch inlet.

 

I used k&n filter #RE-0930 on my short ram intake setup for my gsr. I compared it to a couple other k &n filters but it was by far the cheapest ($39.98).

 

Does the size of the filter make a difference? Shmoo i tried looking for the one you described closest one i got is :http://www.knfilters.com/search/prod...x?Prod=RC-4160

I almost sold on the RE-0930 i just wanna make sure the damn thing isnt too big.

 

More filament area = more air.
More folds = restricted flow.

You should find a happy medium. Most good companies have found it for you.. K&N, HKS & the like.

 

I looked at the following K&N's before deciding on the RE-0930, based on the fact that they all have a flange with an inner diameter of 2 7/8" - 3":

RU-4730 $68.28
RR-3003 $57.48
RU-4990 $51.88
RF-1030 $44.44
RE-0930 $39.98


All prices were quoted to me by Advance Auto. I got my filter from there and it was shipped to them overnight at no cost to me or aynthing. Hope this helps.

 

I forgot to mention to use a little wd-40 or light lube/grease/vaseline on your finger. It goes on a little easier. Don't worry about it sliding off, once you clamp it down it's on there.
