hi. i bought this intake off a org member. problem is the Intake is 3" and i THOUGHT the intake I had previously would work but no it's a 4" HOLE , any ideas on making the hole smaller?

I thought i just need the apex filter and adaptor, am i still missing something?
pics below.

 

go buy an adaptor from ACE. 3" to 4" in the plumbing section

or buy a new maf adaptor from ebay for like 10$

 

which is better you think?

Anyone have one of these maf adaptor for sale or free layin around??????????

 

You can get frankencar's apexi adapter. Not cheap but it's built like a **** brick house.

 

DID i get the Right adaptor for the APEX Filter??
The adaptor was nothing special at all just basic bs

 

What exactly do you have? The filter, MAF adapter......

 

Filter, Apex adaptor ( i think) , its in the pic below. any ideas if this is the right thing.
I thought it was supposed to go over those slots on the outer rim of the intake for something.

can u tell by the pic. ? thanks mike, mikewest

 

this is how my apexi filter and frankencar adapter work:

Standard (3" I believe) MAF adapter on the MAF.

Frankencars aluminum adapter on the filter.

Silicone coupler going over both adapters connecting the two, using T-bolts to clamp down the silicone coupler.

 

can't tell by your pics becuse I can't see the adapter you have connected to the filter. It looks like you have a silicone coupler over the filter adapter held in place with a clamp. Is this correct? If it is, the try putting the silicone coupler over the adapter on the MAF.

 

OK i got some more pics. what do you think??

remember. i bought this from and org member already put together but supposedly new. and this is the adaptor i got.? why isnt it this type of adaptor -> http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=2438908016
Is this what i really need?????
