air filters
i have a small amount of room to work with and i was wondering if anyone knew where to get some small air filters. i have about 1.5 inches between my turbo and my waste gate so i need something that can fit with that.

Re: air filters
wow 1.5 inches. thats not that much. can we get a picture of the setup?
id just run a screen with a t bolt clamp around it. the set up will cost lest that 15 bucks and prevent larger objects but not micron objects.

Re: air filters
I personally always try to put a filter on, but if you have that much room you are pretty much screwed. Shows us a picture, might be able to help.

Re: air filters
K & N makes lots of sizes, but I think that will be way too tight for any. You need to provide inlet diameter and a pic of the setup, otherwise look at these two lists:

Re: air filters
just check the filter , and then double check , is it goin to fall to bits ? any metal caps that could come off ... only saying as my filter did just that 2 nights ago, shiny new garrett turbo is not so shiny now .
dont skimp out on a cheap filter. lesson learned the hard way.

Re: air filters
what i have on it now is something like redls said and what i was thinking about doing was just cutting out a piece of a fram filter and putting it on the outside of the wire mesh. the only thing i see that might be a problem is the heat. i don't want to be boosting and have the filter catch on fire...

Re: air filters
also, from the first list hiprofile posted, i think part number RU-2760 would fit just fine, only down side is that its $30... cheaper then a rebuild kit i suppose though

A filter as small as your wanting is going to be a huge restriction. Also, that one you mentioned is 2 inches which is obviously not 1.5
