MS elbow with a different filter

bhup09 · 07-21-2014, 12:15 PM

Ive been trying to find out if I can use my afe drop in filter with a MS elbow. I'm getting the elbow from another member and would like to know if I can use my afe dry filter. Thanks any help is appreciated

Is the afe filter the same as stock? If so I don't think you'd be able to use it.

I had a KN filter prior to getting the MS kit and noticed that the KN filter couldn't be used so I had to use the filter that came with the kit. The opening was different (larger).

Yes its the afe filter for the stock intake.

It won't fit MS elbow, however, it'll fit if you have a Dinan intake.
