Default BIGGEST filter possible?
Hi all, I would like to fit the biggest K&N filter on my bugeye please.

For the power that I am running, my cosworth panel filter in the standard airbox is just fine, but I want the NOISE.

So what can I fit please?

I dont mind changing pipes, having a play to get one to fit.

Many thanks
Ian

I've got a k&n 57i fitted to blobeye and it gives a nice woosh on gear changes when on boost. Its just a normal size cone filter so not the biggest. I'm not entirely sure on the others. You can get the one I have on the scoobyworld site.
Bear in mind you would need a remap/tune when putting a cone filter on the car Luckily my one came already mapped on the car when I brought it.

This one seems to be the biggest.

Don't think you will make that fit easily though!

I have fitted a Graham goode cosworth K&N air filter utilising the RCM spun trumpet, it's about an inch and a bit larger than the RCM cone air filter.
I'll post up a pic when I get home.

Biggest one is a 260mm tall one, mainly for rotated set ups but can be made to fit, easier if maffless and just add joiner silicone hose

My Ramair filter has an 80mm neck, the filter itself is 280mm long.
And as you say the foam gives an awesome induction noise.
