intake filter help

[guitarman540]

so i just received my cai from ebay and they filter is horrible. while looking for a new filter i realize that the pipe inlet is 2.75" and most filters are 3" have any one of you guys dealt with this before? and if so what filters work?

 

[imaricer:)]

spectre filter from autozone. it is universal.

despite it bein in autozone , spectra is a "ok" brand, but u can find aem for 60ish

Didn't the ebay ad say what size the inlet is? They usually do from my recollection.
Check the ad and if it says 3" ask the seller to send you a 3" inlet tube/pipe.

I have a slightly used aem dry flow filter if you want it. Had it on my car for about 1000 miles. Opening is 3". Should fit your eBay piping.

Let me know if you want it.

the piping is 2.75" i went to autozone and bought a spectre filter thinking it would fit cuz i wanted a filter that had more substance, and it didnt fit it was too large due to the 3" inlet. so i dont know what to do

u can remove the rubber hoses inside the filter to make it smaller
