Default Comptech Intake Air filter

I tried the search for this and came up empty handed. Does anyone know the different air filters that will fit the CTSC airbox? Im not too impressed with the filtration of foam filters, so could anyone chime in and tell me other possibilities for an air filter in the comptech box.

I don't have a CT filter to look at, but if you measure yours, you may be able to find something here:

I'm curious to know why you weren't so impressed with Comptech's foam filter. I have one as well and I'm due to either swap it out or clean it out with a cleaner. Would like to hear your thoughts as to why you thought the CT filter was not good to the S2K.

But my primary concern was filtration.

Being this posters info was from K&N heres their conclusion

Heres the experiment i found that seriously discouraged me from wanting to use any type of foam filter.

So these conclusions are why i do not like the idea of a foam filter.

This is of interest to me, I have a CT airbox and am due to clean or replace the filter. Please let us know what you find out.

Thanks..

Foam filters are no good IMO, I put a AFE filter into my Comptech box.


AFE part # 24-55507
5-1/2"F x 7"B x 4-3/4"T x 7"H
