Default procharger guys what filter are you using????

id like to see what intake filters you guys with prochargers are using.
i know that the type, style, and location of the air filters will affect performance so i would like to see what were you using and what are you using now and what your results were/are.

i run the largest one i can find, would like a 4" on my D1SC, but the inlet is only 3.5, gained 30-40 RWHP with it rem-i duct the filter outside the engine comp.
i use a modded F body inlet, due to space, need to make a custom one

Have pics?

I am just running the procharger hat with larger filter and a small filter on bypass port. My car picks up 3 psi and almost 100rwhp with hat off.

I'm using a P5 Cone filter from Spectre, part # 9736 cause I wanted blue. I switched to that when I did the truck inlet hat on the blower since it is adjustable from 3" to 3.5" to 4" pipe inlets.

I run a K&N that is 5.75" at the base tapered to 5" at the end and 12" long. Part # RF-1004. I had to tweak it to fit in my bumper cover but its good to like 2000 CFM.

Here is the filter I am using. As you can see, it just fits and you can't use a larger one. This is looking in with the headlight out. Sorry, no before and after testing.

This is what I'm using, I saw a gain 1.5 #'s of boost.

Procharger supplied filter on the left new filer on the right. http://mycarpics.shutterfly.com/276

K/N # for big filter ^^^ http://www.knfilters.com/search/prod...x?Prod=RF-1045

Added this little filter for the bypass hole. I had a frost plug in that hole to start. http://mycarpics.shutterfly.com/277

K/N # for the small filter ^^^ http://www.knfilters.com/search/prod...x?Prod=RU-0200
