Instead of spending $117-145 for a Pro Design K&N Pro Flow ATV Air Filter Kit, save a few bucks and piece it. I did and it cost about $65(plus some shipping), saving at least $40. :thumbs: K&N filter was $32, adaptor was $16, & Outerwears was $17. Here's how...

1). Filter

2). Outerwears
20-1074 - Outerwears, Inc. - Original manufacturer of Pre-Filters & Shockwears

3). Adaptor

I received all the parts and they fit perfect. Hope this helps you in our struggling economy.

Although this a great option, there is a difference between that intake design vs the prodesign, Texas intake, and trinity styles.  These major brands have a tapered inside to act like a venturi and add velocity to the larger air flow.  The balance of velocity and over all flow has been the reason these products have delivered consistent power IMO.


Great find though, and I'd be interested to hear how it performs for you  :thumbs:

This is a tapered filter, exact size of the Pro Design. I searched around and found the K&N part number, to buy the filter seperately. I'll let you know how it perfroms, going out Thanksgiving.

I wasn't talking about the filter, the adapter portion is tapered/shaped to create velocity after the filter  :thumbs:

I took her for a spin this weekend and there was a massive improvement over the foam Uni I had on there before.
