Default Velocity Funnel?

Hey guys i picked up this "velocity funnel" from autozone for 15 bucks and I was wondering...I highly doubt it...but is there a cone filter with a 6.5inch inlet? The Velocity funnel has 3"neck and 6.5"outlet. Thanks

Is it exactly 6.5 . The bpi recommends K&N Filter RF-1048 but i think thats just for 6"

Yes u r right, but this is half a inch longer in diameter... So i dont even know if they make a filter that will fit that or if they do, would it be worth it?

I dunno... what did the guys that got the bpi have to say about it? I'm sure it didnt do a whole lot.. but for 15 bucks i'd give it a try, but then again your gonna have to spend around 50 bucks for another k&n filter equaling 65 bucks total.

Either way keep us posted on what happens

I believe 6in is the max inlet diameter size for K&N filters. I just tried to "search for a filter by dimension" on thier website and there's nothing bigger than 6in as an option.

the only way to find out if it helps would be to dyno test it or to view a datalog of your a/f before and after installation.

Thats cool guys and that is not a tub of meat..lol.. Its kind of like carrot cake ...I also went on K&N website and found out that 6" inch is the largest ...So no other company makes one larger? Also the guy at autozone said that this goes in front of a filter, I am guessing like some of the those integras with the velocity stack in the front. Iono help me out guys

thats what i wanna do minus the power chamber thing...The J-racing intake reminds me of the v2 intake which has been proven to make a lot of power for the prelude. So i was thinking j's style intake+velocity stack=really good intake power...Right? Plus it will better than the gay flebay intake . Comments are welcomed and so are suggestions on how to put a filter on this sucka!

By the way this is the copy I was talking about:
