Default Where in the deuce can I find a replacement filter for the an AEM cold air intake (V1)

Hello,

I am looking online for a place to buy a replacment fitler for my 00 si AEM Cold Air Intake (not v2 and not the short ram). I also completely forgot what size the air intake was. Any info would help greatly.

Regards

Chad

Go to autozone and get a K&N.

They're the same size, it'll fit right on like the old one did...and K&N filters > AEM filters IMO.

The K&N filter should come with different size rubber rings that should pop out of the filter to make it smaller/bigger.

So I am looking on both K&N website and auto zones web site and this is what I found....

http://www.knfilters.com/universal/universal.htm

http://www.autozone.com/select...p.htm

I can only assume you guys are talking about a "Universal fit".

If anyone can still supply me with an exact part number that would be great

Regards

Chad

Go to the store, and open boxes until you find one that's 2.5"-3" whichever one you need.

Most clerks know exactly what us ricers are looking for.

I actually couldn't find a cone 2.5" K&N filter from any of my local stores...I had to order off of K&N's website. They have every size and shape you could imagine on the site. Just take measurements of your current AEM filter and match up with K&N's site. If you Don't have the AEM filter anymore, than just measure the pipe diameter, and guess on the actual size of the rest of the filter.

Honestly... aside from me having to rig the one I have up... Yeah I like It. My engine was actually acting noticebly better than when the v1 short intake was on. Acceleration was a lil better, sound was good, car didn't take as long to start.

Thing is i'm not sure if I can attribute that to the intake its self or the K&N filter that I bought which ended up not being exactly the same diameter size (the biggest one in the store) as the pipe so I cut part of the rubber then rigged it, sealed any areas connecting the rubber to the metal clamp to the rubber or metal (you get the idea) I sealed it with a hot glue gun. The filter was long so it's not in your standard area but it's nesting nicely right behind one of the opening in the c west bumper so it gets lots of air.

I road tested it on the way to school and back and it held up like a champ. There were some bumps cause of construction areas. The only thing I don't like about it is that they made the v2 insanely big diameter so it's a beotch to find a filter.
