i have heard of guys using ones for the 2.5NA motors. there are threads just do a search. plus anyone made for a 2.5 might need a lil fab , maybe even none

I picked up a generic cone filter from autozone for like 30 bucks. the mod was simple improv. I took out the airbox, and pulled out the little gold flange it used to connect to the MAF, use a sawzall to cut pipe back 3 inches, refit the MAF to new location, & used a silicone gasket maker to seal the cone to the flange & bolted it back to the ecu. it will make for a perfect fit, and if you're high altitude, there WILL be an increase in performance & mileage. i didn't get much for HP, except like 4HP or so, but i went from 22 to 28MPG highway.
