TID - Filter size ??!?
I am making up a TID for my 91 TII with a streetported engine w/ a BNR 3 turbo.
I am going to route the filter to the front bumper behind my FMIC. So, size of the filter is important.
I first bought a KN filter that measured 6" diameter and 9" long. Not exactly sure what I was thinking but it was WAY to damn big.
Now , I am looking at a 5" diameter by 5" long.
This seems better.
I need a 3" flange on the back side of teh filter.
Thoughts on a good size?

That is the size chart I am looking at for reference....

Well, since the filter will be tucked behind the FMIC but in front of the rad. I really do not want to impeed any flow the radiator.
The 6" wide 9" long filter.....was HUGE in that space.
Seems like 5" W 5"" will work better.
I guess once I get things running....I can do some magnehelic testing....see what kinda resriction I am getting with my TID/filter.

However, it is going to be a cooler source than the engine bay. I was thinking about putting a half sheild around the side fo teh filter that would be right behind the FMIC.
And since the Greddy fmic takes up the space under the passenger headlight.
I see no where else to put the TID / Filter.
Cardboard mock up....man I hate buying stuff on the road I won't be home for another week...so I gotta buy this stuff blind.
I sort of made up a cylinder that is 5"W 5" long with my USA today to get an idea of size.
