Question M2 airbox filter options

Will Apexi filters fit in the M2 airbox?
If not, is there a better filter than the supplied pair of K&N's?

I use oval k&n's, the apexi's won't fit, they're too big

I believe the correct K&N is RB-0720. They are tight and do interfere with each other. The filters have to be distorted a little because of this.

Yeah, super tight fit. That's the correct part #, I just bought some. The lower filter needs to be "crushed" a little to make them fit.

Did you see the single filter k&n makes. I wonder if that'll fit. Basically, it looks similar to the Apexi oval filter. There's two circular inlets & a "ram air" induction on the head.
