To all those that told me to go with the round air cleaner instead of the K&N FIPK; I should have listened [sm=hail.gif]

Switched over to a Mopar Performance round A/C a week ago and I'm not going back. I will be picking up a K&N Filter for it eventually but I still like it alot more than the FIPK. Keep up the good advice.

I have been using the round filter style for almost a year now, I will never go back. The performance is 10 times better or at least feels that way. And you can never beat the sound of all that air sucking down the intake anytime.

I'll get some up within the next two days. But for now just picture your engine bay, minus the sweet valve covers, and dirty.

I bought mine from Summit Racing.

I'd say its at least the same and I'm still only running the basic filter that came with it, not a k&n. On topof that its easier to workaround and cleans up the engine bay.

Does it take the same mod as the Edelbrock or does it come with hardware to mount on the TB?

You'll need to make an 'S' bolt. Search for the post "k&n fipk no more" , it should have a diagram for making one.
