    Default Where can ITB airfilters be purchased?

    Hey I'm looking for alternatives to running velocity stacks/trumpets with uni filters over them...

    I would like to run something similar to these ------>

    Although these look more as if they are normal style filters attached to a piece of pipe (or similar) which has been attached to the throttle bodies.
    I'm specifically after (if they can be had somewhere) a filter with a bell mouth on the inside that has a flange that bolts straight up to the silver-top ITB's.
    I remember seeing something similar quite a few years ago in a hot4s mag that featured a Toyota echo with quads....

    I know there are some on eBay US, but the price is BS for what they are IMO....

    I also came across these which look interesting but unfortunately they are not in production yet I believe...

    I have looked through K&N's online catalog and couldn't really find what I was after... Was maybe thinking of going to a motorcycle shop and seeing what they have in the way of filters?

    You can get the uni filter ones from Kaizen most of the time. Ebay has them too. I got no idea about the others. Just try repco and look through all the books from speco thomas etc and you might get lucky. I guess you could try a carb tuning place if theres anywhere still around. Theyd know for sure. You see most carbs with filters like those. I dunno about those invisible ones, they may give a better airflow down the stack, but the filter area is greatly reduced over a normal uni filter. Theyd need more frequent cleaning and would need to be pretty free breathing to work effectively. Cheers Niz.

    I was about to mention Uni Filters, I got mine at Auto barn.

    But you don't want 'em. So I can't help you..

    How much money you willing to spend? Jubride do these

    which I think are porn, but insanely exxy at around 450au, not including shipping and what not
    Certainly an option though if your budget allows.

    I already have trumpets and uni filters, but don't want to run them.....

    The Kid ---> they are the ones I mentioned that were on eBay US... way too much coin for what it is IMO

    Matt ---> yeah those destruction tuning ones look like a cool concept, and I'm surprised I haven't seen similar before, but as you said they don't have much in the way of filtration material and would no doubt need constant cleaning.. I do like the idea though...

    Have a look at them, I think thats what you're after.
    They have rubber bellmouths inside them and you just put them onto a straight piece of pipe.
    I imagine you can get them anywhere that sells K&N stuff, be a special order though
