I just recieved my MAF Adaptor from Importtoys. I didn't get their filter b/c i want to get a K&N filter, but do not know what model # to get. If anyone has a cone K&N filter on their adaptor (mine has a 3" flange/opening), could u please tell me what model # u got. Thanks.

By MAF adaptor, do you mean the plate used to properly hook an aftermarket filter to your intake? I have had trouble finding one if that is what you mean.

This is what I did, just go into an aftermarket auto shop and search for the K&N filter that will fit into the Adapter. I've been to Pepboys, AutoZone, etc, but had no luck in finding the right K&N filter. I have one laying in my house, I will go home and look for the part number, it's K&N X-Flo filter.

I just used a $25 APC filter on mine. I had to jimmy it on a bit, but it fits VERY tight now, works excellently.

I didn't really notice a huge difference right away, but I have come to realize that the throttle response is MUCH better, and the power is a little better throughout. Throttle response REALLY got better though.

How long did it take Importtoys to ship out that MAF adaptor from the time your ordered it?

ChrisSC300

Yeah, how long did it take for it to ship. I ordered one from importtoys 2 weeks ago, and still nothing. They didnt even give me a conformation of my purchase. i am a bit worried.

Hey guys....i went to the local rice boy shop (ComputrWiz's advice) and they sold K&N filters. I got a K&N cone filter (model #: RU-3580) and it fits perfectly. Thanks for all the help.

SC3: I got mine from Importtoys.com for like $34. (this price includes shippng)

Dec: It took Importtoys about 2 wks. (actually 1 more day and it woulda been 2 weeks). I am loc. in TN. U could always PM Importtoys and ask him where ur MAF is. This is also about the time it took Mat to get his.

Chris: I would PM Importtoys and ask him about ur order. I got a ocnfirmation in my email. U can also go to Paypal and see if ur order went through by looking at ur history.


Hope this helps everyone and I am pleased w/ thrott;e response (a lot) and i think it helps performance as well.

WHEW!! I got my MAF today. It took about 2 weeks. I never got any conformation, but it came today. Now all I have to do is get a filter. I think i am going to order an Apex'i power intake, and "jimmy" rig it to fit.

hey chris or anyone?

is there a difference between the Apex'i and the K&N filter? I'm currently shopping for a filter which will fit on my MAF adaptor too.

K&N is a direct fit, Apexi allegedly is 1/4 inch too big and would require something to fill the gap.

Red93sc400

Yah, the Apex'i is a total dry filter vs a wet oil filter like the K&N is. Thus the Apex'i does not send oily vapor into your MAF and O2 sensors. In a test of quite a few filters, the Apex'i is perhaps the best filter doing what a filter is supposed to do... Filter crap out of the air before it gets into the engine.

Here is a website that shows test results of various power intake filters....

Also there is a thread here all about how to fit the Apex'i onto a "standard" MAF adapter plate. Mine is fitted onto the ImportToys MAF... Here is the thread for the Apex'i fitment...

I hope you find these pointers helpful.

Could one of you guys that hasn't installed your MAF adapter measure the bolt spacing for me? I have one laying around and wonder if it will bolt to the SC MAF
