Approvals & Certifications:
This conical filter (filter head) with a 4-inch diameter (equivalent to 100 mm) is a universal fit product. It can be installed on any car in the world provided the following technical standards are met:
- Intake Pipe Size: The diameter of the sports intake pipe installed in the car must be exactly 4 inches to clamp the filter onto it and secure it with the metal clamp (or use a "Reducer" adapter if the pipe is a different size like 3.5 inches).
- Available Space: Due to being a "short" type filter, it is specifically designed for cars suffering from tight space inside the engine bay that cannot accommodate long filters.
Usage Methodology:
- Preparation: Open the hood, ensure the engine is completely cool, and locate the sports intake pipe in your vehicle.
- Dimension Verification: Verify that the intake pipe diameter is exactly 4 inches, or prepare an appropriate reducer adapter if the pipe size differs (e.g., 3.5 inches).
- Filter Installation: Push and press the 4-inch filter head directly and securely onto the end of the intake pipe.
- Securing: Position the metal clamp around the base of the filter and tighten it firmly to prevent any air leaks or filter movement while driving.
Suitable For:
4-inch filters are considered the preferred choice for high-performance modified engines, whether naturally aspirated, turbocharged, or supercharged, including:
- American V8 Engines: Such as LS engines (Camaro, Corvette, Caprice), Hemi 6.4 & 6.2 engines (Charger, Challenger), and Mustang 5.0 engines with upgraded 4-inch intake systems.
- Japanese & European Turbo Engines: Utilizing large turbochargers that require massive airflow through dedicated 4-inch intake piping.
Note:
- Compatibility requires the intake pipe diameter to be exactly 4 inches or the use of an appropriate reducer
