ok im trying to find out how i can get the black barrier that comes with the K&N filter setup. all i need is the barrier not the filter.

ive tried ebay and club gp

any other ideas?

im not sure that you can just buy one, its a heat sheild and you can make one your self, i think theres a few write ups i believe

Did you try E-Mailing K&N?

But it would probably be cheapest just to build one.

Contact K&N you need part#074024 (heat shield) for their FIPK part#57-3045.

yea ive seen austin's setup

no offence but i think it looks rice-ish, i was looking for a more factory look lol

yea building it does look pretty wierd (looks like a box of tin foil thrown together), you could just leave it an open cone

I did a little test when I first installed a K&N setup and here is what I found with a thermometer inside the heat shield and the car ideling with the hood closed the temp. was 10deg above ambiant temp.(92deg)compared to 83outside,when driving the temps were even ,so the heat shield does do its job and seals fairly well to the hood ,I know a lot of people think the K&N FIPK is overpriced but consider the R&D ,the dyno testing of each setup and the tube itself is made of a heat resitant polycarbonate,I run the setup on each of my cars& trucks and I'm quite satisfied with the look and performance.Chico(pops)http://www.knfilters.com/contact.htm

I typed that number in on K&N product search, but didn't get anything for the box.

That part# is on the expanded view of the install instructions you will have to contact K&N to get the part.

hey chico do you think the k&n is better than a fwi? such as the jmp or whatever wbodystore sells?

To be honest I do'nt think you'll find any difference in performance between the two so I think it all comes down to which look you prefer.

No, it's not any better. They cost more and look nicer.

I've been through 5 intake setups.
I wish I didn't just sell my FWI, since the temps stayed way down. Now my HAI is running temps out the roof. So I have to build a box.
I like the HAI, or like the FIPK look cause it fills that huge area on that side of the engine. The FWI left soo much room, it looked like a nice turbo could fit in there, so I had to eliminate the urge to go turbo for now, and go back to HAI. *Build box time*

thanks guys, i emailed the website and they gave me the tube and the heat shield for 45 bucks. awesome deal!

thanks for the part numbers chico!

Another satisfied customer!

is that everything in the kit except the filter??

CUZ thats a sweeet dealll

y would the whole kit be so much when you got the whole kit minus the filter for 45!?

its not , i called and the tube itself is 75 and the bolt kit is 20 and the heat sheild is 55 , so i dont HOW he got that deal, but thats why

Military discount my friends. the guy asked when i gave him my address (since i live on base) and he knocked 50% or so off.

never had a military discount on somthing before. pretty cool.

yea, lol thats why i was gonna say, thats a hella good deal !

well congrats lol
