K & N Air Filter Relocation Mod

Here is some pics of how I re modeled the air filter. This I did when I bought the coach 2 years ago. I removed the air filter from the left wheel well in front of the tire good thinking Airstream.

I moved it up to the left left grill area.There is room to come straight off the turbo out along side the rad elbow to the left a short piece of tubing and an elbow up. This K/N filter has been in use for 2 years with the outer foam pre filter and as you see in the pic there is no dirt or oil film on the paper towel.

Not starting a flame war just my experience with my mod
