Default Drag Turbo Kit Filter Problem Solved

The drag turbo kit filter was hitting my hood and i found a quality filter that will easily fit. People say to use the K&N filter but it was still to big and hitting my hood. Solution: HKS Metal Flow. It fits perfect and doesnt even come close to hitting the hood.

If it's a foam filter I wouldn't recommend it.
