What is the AEM filter size for the Berk Intakes?

Hey, Im going to replace my air filter.....Only problem is, i cant seem to get in contact with Berk, and the AEM dryflow filter im looking for wont come up on the site because AEM doesnt exactly make an intake for our 5th gen's.

So could some one direct me as to where i can purchase an AEM dry flow filter WITH THE RIGHT PART NUMBER AND WHERE............my confidence in ebay isnt exactly there, ESPECIALLY if idont have the part number


thanks

What is the size of the berk pipe? After that find the part number for the dry flow filter with that size opening. I think aem has 3 different Sizes of the filters per Opening size. Bigger is better, you want more surface area on your air filter.

or you can an oversize K&N filter. I purchased one with my Berk intake. Model #RR3003. I paid like $45 for it.

I used the clamp that came with the filter. No adapter necessary. Fits like a glove.

Yo; Hi-tek22 that part# of 21-203dk is the correct one. I recently called Berk to find out for a new spare for when I wash the old one out. Make sure you have sunny warm day if you decide to wash the old filter because the drying takes some time.

AEM takes 30 minutes to dry since it is hydrophobic

The bracket came with my Berk intake kit. The MAF is stock.

Yes it is the same size, so yes it will fit.

This is my custom intake.


70mmTB, No midpipe, Land Rover MAF housing, JWT pop intake.
The JWT intake is not the most easiest intake made to fit, took alot of work.

Not going to have the JWT pop or this whole intake setup for much longer, cause i'm going to a 90mm setup
