Default Filter

I am puting a turbo kit together for my 93 Civic EX. So far I have these pieces from a 97 GSX: turbo, bov, injectors, and IC piping. I have the IC from a 1G Eclipse (fits perfectly in the fender) and a MBC. I was wondering (cause it's not mentioned) what you guys are using as an air filter. Is it just mesh with a clamp or what?? Thanks for any replies.

Oh... heres my car if anyone is interested.

i went to the local motorcycle shop and bought a K&N cone for $35

part # RU - 0500

the ID of the inlet is perfect for a 14b/t25 or similar size.

that's what i recommend doing

some people just run it open, or with a mesh screen. filter would be safest though.

I got the ticket dropped. I just said that it was on there when I bought it. And I mentioned that I am always followed and "harassed" whenever I'm in Bend. She was afraid of a lawsuit. Hell ya I'm boostin it.

I was using a cheap APC cone filter from autozone... Doesn't fit anymore, so I'm using a cheap APC mushroom sponge thing from autozone. That thing barely fits either.
