maybe2fast Posted March 3, 2004 Report Posted March 3, 2004 So I decided to purchase a new cone air filter and cone crankcase filter because my old one was looking alittle shaddy. I noticed a difference when the new one was installed, I didn't think I was going to. Anyways Guys if you are looking for a cool cone filter that breathes really well go to autozone in the burner section and pick one up. Just thought I would post this, I know it isn't oil charged but still a nice filter. Quote
EurosportZ34 Posted March 4, 2004 Report Posted March 4, 2004 What kind did you get? I got my APC and K&N from AutoZone. Quote
gp90se Posted March 4, 2004 Report Posted March 4, 2004 Shitty ass $22 autozone filter, flows VERY well becuase it lets in 100x more dirt then a stock filter, dont believe me, in 200 miles look at the backside of the throttle body and see how much sand and dirt is on there. reactive, k&n and edelbrocks cool blue filters are cotton gauze and do a pretty good filtering jobs. -Jeff Quote
runt Posted March 4, 2004 Report Posted March 4, 2004 Yeah I had one of those $20 APC cones from Autozone. I didn't really think that it let that much stuff in. In all reality, it was about the same from stock to that. Now i have a slightly different intake on there, with a better cone...but I mean maybe my eyes just sucked, but the APC cone wasn't too bad IMO. Quote
per0781 Posted March 4, 2004 Report Posted March 4, 2004 Haven't some APC cone filters fell apart cause they glue they used suck? Quote
Lee Posted March 8, 2004 Report Posted March 8, 2004 My Rative is doing well, and I have checked the throttle body each time I clean it. I clean it 2 times a year and re-oil. K&N would have been nice but I went cheap and like the heat deflector cone Idea. Quote
89oldscutlass Posted March 9, 2004 Report Posted March 9, 2004 My APC cone filter has done good. The only time I could tell any HP gains is on the interstate but you do loose torque on the bottom end. Quote

913_4se Posted March 9, 2004 Report Posted March 9, 2004 just a thought 1997 or something ford trucks use paper cone filters they are like 10 inches long and the same size as aftermaket ones the best part there only 6-12 bucks if you dont want to spend alot and have the safety of a good air filter there made by fram i think or a smaller one from a 96 windstar 3.8 works too they sound better then stock Quote
gp90se Posted March 9, 2004 Report Posted March 9, 2004 A) Dont buy fram Ford sucks C) the ford factory "cone" filter wont attach to an intake tube like the aftermarket ones, it needs the special ford intake setup. -Jeff Quote
