All the short ram intakes on ebay are all the same, i have one... it has an APC cone filter... i want to replace it with one from K&N... I just dont know which size to get. they all come in different dimmensions... any idea what size my filter is?

just make sure the inlet is the same (where it connects) cone size doesnt matter too much, the bigger the more air it can move, generally.

3 inch

This is the one I have on my custom CAI.
It sits in the front fender just ahead of the wheel well.
It cost me just over $50 C$ back in May 04.

Measure the size of your filter.

Then go here:

You want either a round straight or round tapered.

Do you have a 4 or 6? For the V6 use a 3" opening, for the 4, use a 2.5" opening.

i have an I4, 3" tube.

This is what i'm talking about, this same size. i'm afraid if i buy one, it wont fit.

and by looking at that last link, theres about 20 different filter sizes.... i dont like to measure about 10 different dimmensions and i dont feel like it, anyone know a perfect fit for this?

Stop being lazy and go measure it.

All you need is 3 dimensions since you already know the inlet diameter (3"). Top base diameter, bottom base diameter, and length.

make your short ram into a cai, and then you can just buy the biggest filter with a 3" inlet that you can find...

nice and simple that way....

Just so you guys know, straight from the words of K&N, your best filter will be a wide the widest filter you can get, the taller it is doesn't improve flow.

Trixster · 10-26-2004, 12:45 PM

its a 3'' but measure to sure

how about this?

my filter barely squeezes in my engine bay, it has like 1/4 inch of space all the way around it.

i just want one the same size as this APC one i have. (i dont know if its APC, i just know there was an APC booklet in the box)
