i see you have an ED so no. your current one flows air from the top through through the filter to the bottom. then out to the manifold. EF/EL one is other way around. so the output pipe will be in completly the wrong place. that said, if you feel it would be worth it to make a pipe, i have no doubt you could make it fit. But it would proly have some tight kinks in it and not flow very well. making any difference from the filter negated. how come you want a pod? |

One thing to remember is that not only do you need the EA intake pipe but you will also need the lower section of the airbox because the EA intake pipe being a bigger diameter means it will not fit the EB-ED lower airbox section. that sounds good il definately be doing it, so the lower section will fit onto the top half of my ED airbox yeah? are they easi to pick up from wreckers and that? pcik n pay less mayb? cheers Yep, The ED top fits straight onto the EA bottom. I picked up my EA intake pipe and lower airbox section from the wreckers for only $10. Also, When you put a XH snorkel on too you do feel that the throttle response is better......Even better again with a high flow K&N filter.

I just got back from buying the air filter, and already i can feel a difference, throttle response is heaps better i recon. thansk for ya help il let ya no how i go, cheers

i don't know what some people are on when they say "i put one on and it made 5rwkw increase"...all i can say is before and after dyno sheets please.
By buying K&N you will get a filter that will last heaps longer than a factory one, it will give you an increase of power that is pretty much unnoticable over having a NEW factory filter.

But the K&N sticker that comes with the airfilter looks so cool!

I have a K&N filter got it from americanauto's online store for $82 on special. I noticed some difference but that was because i replaced it with a paper filter that had done 30000km of faithful service. Don't know whether much difference, but it helps with a bigger intake snorkel...
Cheers....

yeah thats what i found when i got mine. Its just the inside of the standard ED tube which goes to a cone like shape, but the outer rim covers the hole on the airbox, like the EA one
