Does intake filter size matter?
The other day I seen a guy who has a d16z6 with a giant k&n cone filter on it, considerably used for engines the size of 7.3L max. the length of it was 9" and the base diameter was 6".
my question was is it better to have a bigger air intake filter for more air flow? especially since we're dealing with a 1.6L?
please reply with any ideas you guys have, thanks.

i use a 7" long by 5" around K&N cone filter and love it. looks nice having a huge filter to fill the intake to fender corner gap.

Theres nothing wrong with a performance drop-in filter for your stock box.
Why waste money on SRI and CAI's?

no, this was not a filter for the stock box.... it was a large K&N filter possibly the size of your head. take a look:

I put my trucks K&N on only because i don;t have the truck anymore and my car had to intake tubing or box. That thing kills my engine with heat soak.
