thanks, well at first i planned on doing a 3.5, but then i read up and heard about oil burning issues, so i changed my mind to the De-K, and i knew a DE-K swap alone wont give me the power i wanted, so i got a V2 kit.

Either way, neither one is going to carry a filter large enough. I work part time at Auto Zone and we dont carry them. You can have them order it, but you would either need to know the part number or how much CFM your looking for it to flow.
Youd be better off just ordering one onlione.

Why dont you have any clamps on those silicone hoses between the pipes and MAF and the pipe and the TB.

Everything looks good. Except the filter looks too small. What does the filter flow for cfms?

If you decide to do the pancake filter, I should still have my original one that comes with the kit. Its a K&N.

Flava, (I'm not saying this to act like I know it all btw...just trying to be helpful)

You can order multiple K&N filters through the catalogs that autozone has. You just have to look them up in the K&N one and then type in the part numbers into VDP to see if Autozone can get that specific part.

Thats why I stated you could have them order it, I also stated it helps to have the part number of the filter you want (can be obtained from an org member or by searching) or know how many CFMs your needing and actual size of the filter.
The reason I mentioned ordering it online, is if your going to have to order it anyways, best to shop around. Im pretty positive an online shop will beat autozones price. Autozone does do price matching for their competitors, but not sure if thats carries over to online sites. It usually doesnt.
