for people with the greddy t78/t88

hey all, i was just wondering what you guys with the t78 or t88 were doing for a air filter, currently i still have a the greddy pos air filter, i wanted 2 upgrade to a better filter lik k&n but there not enough space since the turbo sits so far forward.... just gimme some hints on what you guys use...

Typically the 4 inch K&N will work with that turbo.

I used the Greddy air fiilter mount and cut off the part that would connect to the Greddy air filter so a K&N would fit on the end, here's what it looks like installed..

the looks good, but i have a front mount so the radiator doesn't allow the space for me 2 route it that way... but i dunno ill take a look at it again tonight and see if i can pull that off, thanx for the idea
jason- on my old turbo kit(xs t04s) i used the 4inch K&n and it barely fit because of the top radiator hose, and the t78 sits a little bit father forward that my old turbo... and the greddy filter is shorter then the K&n filter, and i have a hard time squeezing that on sometimes because of how close it is to the radiator..... thank for the responses
