Good stuff, but I didn't see one with a mounting flange that woudl fit a 3.5" pipe and still be small enough to fit under the bumper. I have have to resort to modifying the crash bar, it could be cut and boxed to allow a large filter to fit there.

It's my understanding they will make whatever size we want, I'm going to give them a call. Also they are based outside of Philly and are Eagles fans so I might get a discount....

I need to get it shipped to my parents house and not to Texas LOL.

About 4.5" max. It's tough finding a filter with a maz O.D. of 4.5" that will mate to a 3.5' pipe.

They can make a custom mold that will do 4.5 but that costs extra. They have a mold right now that will do ID of 3.5" with an OD of 5"

As long as we want it... they do everything in house, using similar media that the AEM dry flow does.

Alright I'm headed up there tomorrow to test fit it behind the bumper and see whats what.

He said there's a good chance they can make it 4.5" and about 10" 12" max. To ensure it flows correctly he said 5" would be best due to the pleat depth.

Word, let me know. 10"would probably work, the hood latch intrudes a bit but I think a 10" filter would work. I have thought about getting a box fabbed in that area that would allow the use of a panel filter.

I want a 24" to just stretch the whole length of the bumper. **** would sound mean.

They look like fairly standard high pressure lines used on mill speck equipment and high end construction equipment. I bet taylor or hydro supply store could build you ones.
