So you want to buy new headers and then beat the snot out of them to get a longer filter to fit. Call me crazy, I wouldn't do that under any circumstances, especially if the headers are coated. No way, no how!
Well not if I don't have too! lol If a short filter fits I will just use that and see if I can sell the three regular filters that I already have. But like already stated sometimes those don't even fit. Is buying some tti or dougs headers the only options? Or can I just deal with unbolting a header during an oil change and use the short filter? Because I don't really want to spend 700 bucks on headers since the car won't see any kind of weather other than sun. Being a college student with a small budget doesn't help either! LOL
