if you pull the intake tubeing out. the hard plastic piece has a baffel in it to reduce noise, that can be cut out. BHAF refers to Big Honkin' Air Filter. I have one, a Napa 2790 air filter.

I didnt read into the add, just saw the filter, I dont know if it is a oiled filter or not, personaly I would stay away from the oiled type filters and just stick with a dry paper or nano fiber filter.

I got it for $45. . .Military discount

I noticed the turbo spooled a little quicker due to lower restrictions. overall if you like a LOUD turbo, this is the way to go.
