the oem filter is almost exactly the same. maybe you can try using it instead? Do you even have the filter which is supposed to come with it?

You might be able to use small clamps to clamp the filter to the CF intake. You know like tiny vice grips or something.

It normally uses this V band type ring which bolts to an aluminum velocity stack, is a PTA to adjust and get to seal correctly. I dread filter changes. lol

I only have the carbon intake box itself, no filter. I can get an assortment of filters, my problem is getting the filter to seal around the chamber.
