Just bought a cheapo cone filter off of ebay that comes with an adapter. Besides taking out the stock filter box are there any other modifications need to be made. I presume more air will be flowing through now is there anything that I need to adjust?
The small filter you've seen is exactly that. As mentioned above it goes on your air pump inlet hose. You'll have a better look at it after you yank out the airbox.
Next thing you might want to do is make a heat shield to try and keep the hot under hood air away from your air filter. Search the forum for "heat shield" and you should find a couple examples that can be made in your bedroom for under $20.

You don't need to spend $20 on a mini cone filter - check at the parts store for breather filters - I found one the same diameter as the air pump hose for $3.95 - works fine - and if you think you don't need it check the filter material after a couple of weeks - gone from virgin white to black!
