looks pretty cheap. But what isnt fitting? do you not have couplers to the airflow meter? Be specific.

Yeah you need an adaptor for the air flow meter (AFM). Unless you build a really good box around the filter with some ducting that draws air from outside the engine bay you are actually going to LOSE power.

Afm can be found at RETed's site (3", since it pwns).

New filter can be found anywhere, I personally would go Apexi, K&N, or Bonez.

Then put it together in a Vinspeed cold air box or do the 92-95 prelude thing.

Use that clamp you got in the kit . Baddabing!

I hope you didn't do this as an 'upgrade' otherwise you just wasted some good gas money.
