For the money you can't beat a Spectre.Quote:

Over oiled filter + external MAF sensor = fun times.
Dry flow FTW.
I agree with all of you guys. KnN way over oiled. , but isn't the spectre oiled as well? I would buy a spectre right off the shelf but like posted above, with the MAF the way it is and then u slap on a cone filter right on it, aren't all oiled filters going to soak the MAF? I would get a dry filter if we had em.Quote:

I think spectre has a slight coating of oil, but I don't really know. I run a AEM dryflow filter.
The one I just bought last night has no oil on it
Just the basic one from the parts store. Got a p/n?Quote:

Buy one, now, its that good of the deal.
Aem 9"x4" Conical Dryflow Air Filter Element 21 2059DK | eBay
Don't have a pn, but it was the 40 dollar spectre filter. I believe it's a 9 inch come, fits 3-3.5-4 inch holes. I just used 4 inch and tightened it down. And just pick up a rubber coupling for the maf to tie into the throttle body. You will see everything on my ride page
The MAF and tb are 4 inch openings? Didn't look that big when I had the tb off
???
Use a rubber coupling to reduce the size.Quote:

Ahhh!!! That what I've been asking!!! What size!?! 3-3 4-3?Quote:

The spectre has rubber inserts so you get to choose which size you want...IIRC there is a 4", 3.5", and a 3" reducer.
Exactly, the filter I got came with 4-3.5-3 reducers on the filter
Thought I mentioned that lol
After a fresh filter/ new oil, clean maf in like 30 days, then few months from there.Quote:

Well here's my issue as the intake is tore apart. I don't wanna remove the stock back half of the box cuz I wanna keep the PCM in there. Would a 6" be fine? Only reason I'm asking is because I wanna leave the stock intake tube ( the one from the tb to the MAF ) intact. And I can't fit a 9".Quote:
