Anyone know how long an HKS mushroom filter is? I just got a new stock accordion hose and my K&N filter is too long to fit in the corner with my 3" IC piping.

Oh really? I thought they were decent. Shucks. Any recommendations? Can't be more than 3-4" long, plenty of side to side clearance.

HKS Super Mega Flow's nickname is the HKS Super Dirt Flow. Guess why? :)

Well, if you're wondering why, search around for the filter comparison, or you can look in the N/A Upgrade FAQ. I left it in there somewhere

I read the thread Andrew linked me to, it was especially convincing since that Ubershit filter came off my car.

the issue you might have is the apex unit tilts the filter to one side...

it's not very big though, as you can see here

I've Ran both the apexi and the hks. Both were fine, but i would just have went cheap afm adapter + ebay filter if i had to do it again for the sheer fact that they are just as good.

I just need a shorter filter, my K&N is ~5" long and I need something in the 3" range to fit in the area I've got for it

I've seen several people, including one of the SM Subject experts, say that the oil in the filters kills AFMs, and I don't recall seeing anyone arguing against it.
