is it a "cone" type filter you have purchased? if so then you need to remove the airbox and fit the filter directly to the MAF.

I had a K&N cone filter attached to an air flow meter. It had a special square adapter that screwed to the AFM that the air filter could slide over and tighten on to with a big jubilee clip.

ah so it looks as if i may have to buy the K&N kit then? or is there an alternative? or is the adapter plate available seperately/ elsewhere
cheers for the help guys
