I think they are 2.5-2.75...but I could be wrong.

apexi intakes won't fit with any of the aftermarket intakes... cept the greddy small one... i had them, had to sell them... nice filters though.. but you can make your own intake kit for 30-40$.



i haven't had a chance to take pics yet.. but i'll get to it this weekend.

After I installed my greddy FMIC my air filter options were limited. I bought a Pettit recharge kit (2 K&N cone filters, one with a curved connector) and connected the filters to the turbo inlets directly. Initially I was going to connect them to the stock rubber lines, but it seemed pointless since this would position the filters right behind the radiator. The curved filter is on the front turbo, curving up and out towards the shock tower. I had to bend the cone in slightly to provide clearance for the airpump belt.



I don't know why people spend so much money on simple cone filter intakes, most of which are made out of foam to! $300 on an airbox is justifiable, but not a simple air filter element.
