Default Cone filter??

Good evening all!!!


I have gone front mount so need a cone filter. I have the maf housing so I only need the filter element.

Any recommendations? Anybody know what size I need?

By the way this is for a 2005 blobeye.

Thanks!!

I,d recommend K+N. Have used them on my Scoobs for the last 12 years with no problems. Steve.

Cheers guys! As I have the MAF housing I only need a generic cone that fits. Anyone got any ideas? Are the replacement filters for HKS mushrooms the full mushroom part if that makes sense as I don't need the whole kit? Thanks!!

You jut need to buy a cone filter with a 75mm inlet... As for hks you can buy just the replacement foam.. It comes in 2 size's I think... I have just fitted a front mount to my blobeye and came across this problem.. I think you will struggle fitting a hks filter in there to be honest due to cooler pipes..

I measured how much space I had and fitted the biggest one possible. The link looks ok. K+N,s own site is worth a look aswell. Steve.

I spent ages trying to replace the one on the end of my CAI down in the wing, got all caught up in finding the biggest I could fit in the space I had and trying to find one which would flow well enough for my bhp, in the end I bought a ramair one off eBay was only about £25 quid and its absolutely fine, just checked it the other day and it was still clean and looking brand new after about 4 months or more on the car.
