Obviously, you feel that your engine needs more air. Can you tell me how you came to that conclusion? I suggest you compare performance (on a clean street on a clean day) under two conditions: a test run with standard filter in and then a test run with filter removed. I doubt you will find any difference.

go to amsoil's website and search for eaau4510. This is the biggest air filter they have. There is a link to the acrobat file with pictures and dimensions for all of their universal filters. I get the eaau4510 for fifty-six as a preferred customer. It has a 4 1/2" flange

I run a BHAF primarially for filter life...

Even on a clean street and day there is still a chance of getting something in a turbo impeller. Not a bet I want to take...
