I have an fmax setup on my prelude with an upgraded t3/t04 E turbo. The filter fmax supplied does not fit well so i was thinking of getting this hks filter. Would it be good fit? does anyone have this filter setup on fmax ?

IMO, those filters aren't that great... i mean, you can look through them and see daylight, my suggestion is get a K&N

 

HKS foam filters aren't reusable or rewashable...when they get dirty you have to replace them.

 

I would get another filter but the setup fmax has does not allow the filter to fit. hoses are in the way of the filter which is way to large . I was thinking of relocating the battery to the trunk and getting a longer tubing for the filter? does k&n have smaller filters that will fit rite on to the turbo?

 

K&N has a million freakin sizes, you should easily be able to find a K&N to fit your needs

 

k thanks ill check it out

 

The fmax kit should have included a flexable intake hose that you run underneath the battery tray and a metal coupler that has a port on it. The filter connects to the metal coupler and to the flexable hose is on the other end. To make the flexable hose fit, you will have to shift the battery cable to the side and squeeze the hose a little.
