i hope this works. if it doesnt, i'll try again.

but this air intake looks cool and it seems like it would work good... any opinions? i'm just curious cause i want to try this... Funnel Ram, just because it sounds and looks bigger...

It is longer with the funnel on there. Might want to make sure it will fit in the bay and that the funnel is big enough to fit on your existing MAF adapter.

MAF Adapter ($30)
K&N Conical ($50)

$80 total.
IMO it beats all comers hands down, it's cheaper and you get to choose your filter dimensions.

Though I can't complain about the KKM MAF adapter. It has plenty of meat on it to make it larger! (very important to me) It's just the KKM filter is substandard!

I would stay away from any filter with an inverse cone filter area in the top of it.

Why is this? All the advertising/info on websites about those filters claim that there is better air flow as long as you leave 1" clear in front of it? Please explain? Thanks Demon!!

The KKM has been shown to drop a little high rpm power vs a normal (K&N) conical filter.
Probably not noticeable on an SE??? (lower power & redline)
However it is noticeable on a moderately moded SVT with stock redline.
So more so on a highly modified one with a raised redline!
