The airbox is the restriction, not the filter. That won’t do anything.

just take the lid of your air box off and use fender wahsers to hold the filter in place. I didnt notice any HP increase when I went from this to a cone filter

I works just fine on a stock-ported NA, which I believe is what he has.

FYI, none of the filters on the market make much of a performance difference on a somewhat stock engine. I like the K&N filters because they are good for 10years or a million miles, and I am both cheap and lazy.
