My advice stays the same, Perrin followed by Amsoil. Perrin makes a filter for Subarus with a 3" flange that fits nicely, otherwise Amsoil has a variety of sizes available.

I know that this isnt the topic of the thread but would a larger pipe from the turbo to the filter improve the performance? Maybe a 3.5“ one or a 4“ (considering that perrin filter has a 4.5 or 4.25 inlet. Thanks again for the info, cheers.-

Thanks for the fast response, so i should go with perrin filter.

ahh - i thought there was something about the hood not being able to close or something not fitting - i guess that was it. I think for simplicity's sake i will just stick with my apexi until amosil releases something that's in our exact size

Apexi is about the last choice I'd make - please see the test results, its a terrible MAF adapter design. Perrin and Amsoil both make filters that fit fine and are being run on numerous cars.

i don't consider getting a new intake tube and trimming it to be a product that "fits fine" - and the Perrin I avoided because I wanted a dry filter, etc. I'll keep looking
Any advice on a really high dust area? I live out in the desert and we have really fine dust, Ive noticed some in the intake tube and its a little scary thinking about all the dust being ingested by my motor......







If you go the Amsoil filter route just get a silicone intake tube so you can trim it to fit with the larger filter.
