You just need to find a 3" to 4" reducer. They are out there.

I think there are PVC reducers, you can find at any hardware store that would carry plumbing stuff.

I just found somethin out. The intake filter is a 3" and the AFM is a 2.5". What do all of the S5 N/A guys do when straping on a cone filter? Do they just get 2.5" filters or is there an adaptor that i dont know about?

Can you maybe shim the AFM with radiator hose? Maybe cut a strip and wrap the AFM with it?
