Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums Modifications Duratec Performance K&N ----> RU-3130 vs E-0998

SVT CT....any of those will work because they are all 3.5 inch flange...which is the same as the bat/mirko/etc maf adapter

Some people want a higher flow filter...the 3130 flows almost around the rate of the kkm....
If you have an svt I would go one of the ones I mentioned,

Might rub the hood a lil cuz its a big filter

Actually, if i remember correctly, the E-0998 is the filter that fits a stock SVT airbox. Not the same as a regular Contour air filter which is a drop in square (flat filter) K@N 33-2115-1 . E-0998 does not have a flange, and is a pressure fit inside the conical SVT air box. Although it is a conical filter it can only directly replace cars with SVT air boxes, not stock Contours

Below is a link to a list on the the K@N web site that gives the dimensions of all the filters.
The RU-3130 is a conical filter with a flange.

Go through the list, and base your choice on dimentions of your intake...in my case, I use a RU-3130 since that's what fits the diameter of the Mirko racing intake.

Let me know if you need anything else.

I don't think the 3130 is to small my car has never felt like it was running out of air. But one of the bigger ones certinatly wouldn't hurt. I am sure you can find some pictures of peoples cars with the open filters and see how they seem to fit. The 3130 fits very nicely with a heat shield.

thanks for all the help!
