Pod, as in cone, and panel, as in a drop-in replacement?

I have a cone, and plan to fabricate a cold air box for it soon. Do a search and you should be able to find pictures of different cold air boxes.

You could also buy a pre-fabbed cold air intake, a couple different places make them.

a k&n panel filter is better if youre just going to stick the cone filter in there without routing cold air to it or making a cold air box.

Don't expect any power from a drop-in replacement filter. Most of the restriction is from the box, not the filter.

A cone filter is the best option. But not just on the AFM. If you want to see what is a good setup check out the link in my sig.
