I did my air box mod, I got a metal screen and a kitchen fan filter, it was $13.50. To be honest the sound is ok but I was expecting a better sound. But I'm happy because every time I do something to my car I learn how to do other stuff and it was fun.

Do it how we said and maybe you'll get the sound we did. It's not fair to change it up then knock it!! You guys are going overboard with this double filter crap imo..............

Do you think is better just live the metalic screen? Is that the way you have it?
Thanks

I would do the screen the 2nd filter might be restricting the air too much....

Will this mod work with just the OEM filter or do I need to buy a K&N?

yes it will work with the oem filter but a K&N is highly recomended cuz its not a paper filter and if water does get in the K&N will keep it our of your motor with the stocker will just soak it up
