X-ing in Canada
Hi all,
a quick note to document that it is feasible to install a free flow air filter in about 5 minutes and with minimum cost.
Where and what to buy:
Canadian Tire (or anywhere they sell performance air filters)
I paid 29$ for mine : http://www.slickcar.com/products/SF100AL.jpg
AND
A simple (2 1/2 " to 1 1/2 ") rubber coupling adapter used in plumbing.
It is about 4 inches long and has 2 of those collars that you screw tight.
The air filter has a 3" hole in which you can fit the 2" side and tighten.
The 1.5" side fits nicely IN the existing air intake tube.
You just have 2 screws to take out, keep the 2" hose on the intake,
Plug in the air filter and aim down to fit (tightly) loged between the engine wall and the anti-freeze reservoir.
It really took me 5 minutes and the whole thing was installed.
Sorry if my explanation was confusing!
