Air Filter Options for Windstar Swap?

mustangmike! · January 7th, 2012, 07:15 PM

Seriously need a new air filter on my car. I have the stack racing one thats "reusable'' but I'll just buy a new K&N and go from there I think. Plus im probably going to run something bigger.

Just looking for ideas/pics of what people have used with the windstar swap.

Their are already some issues with my filter rubbing into the metal wall so I might do some cutting/hammering at things to make the hole a bit bigger, but im pretty sure a much bigger air filter would fit then what im running.

I have a spectre $20 filter from advance lol
my intake pipe is weird though, dude that gave me the kit made one and it didn't fit right and I had to cut it.

SlowSix · January 7th, 2012, 09:00 PM

mustangmike! · January 7th, 2012, 09:03 PM

SlowSix · January 7th, 2012, 09:07 PM

When I originally got the pipe the IAC barb was backwards too.

just go to Advance and buy a short filter by spectre...it has an open cap on it as well to let it flow nicely and it'll fit in the fender just fine

SlowSix · January 8th, 2012, 02:52 AM

thats the one I have in the picture. it was like $20

Could always run it into the fender and get one of the autozone filters.
