AG951 Here is the procedure from the post I did earlier.

Here is what you need. The K&N filter I purchased from <a href="http://www.performanceintl.com" target="_blank">http://www.performanceintl.com</a> It is part# RX-4730 K&N universal filter 3" flange inside diameter Base 5 1/2" Top 5" Length 6 1/2"
The filter adapter was from ebay. It is a 90-95 4Runner intake adapter.
<a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2409625826&category=33659" target="_blank">http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2409625826&category=33659 </a>
You will need to drill 4 new holes in the adapter to line up with the AFM on your car. I also routed out part of the inside to allow the most air flow.
This is the filter adapter after modification.

This is it attached to AFM. I used 4 new bolts that were much shorter than the original bolts from AFM. You can get these at any hardware store.

And the finished product.

This did make a noticeable improvement over stock air box. And sounds great too! <img border="0" alt="[burnout]" title="" src="graemlins/burnout.gif" />

I just recieved my Forerunner conefilter and adapter that I won on eBay from the same seller as Ringo951. The adapter that came with mine was plastic w/cork gasket, not metal as shown above. Should this be a cause for concern?
Thanks!
John

WARNING!! <img border="0" alt="[grrrrrrr]" title="" src="graemlins/cussing.gif" /> DO NOT ORDER THE TOYOTA FORERUNNER CONE FILTER W/ADAPTER
The adapter that I purchased through eBay from f1sports that is for the Toyota Forerunner is plastic and it will not properly fit the stock AFM of my '88 951. It is not the same adapter that is pictured on the auction page. I have emailed the seller to try to get a metal adapter as it looks like it will fit with minor alterations, but so far they say that they don't have any of the metal adapters "at this time".
Sincerely Discouraged,
John D
