          Actually, with a $15 shipping fee, the ebay adaptor and filter set costs you $22. The O'Reilly's adaptor is $14, and you can then use whatever better quality cone filter you wish. I use grey AEMs for the Miata, which are more expensive, but they're supposed to filter better & keep engine air cleaner.

                I got one off a jy BMW but the four mounting holes were too close to the "pipe" to put in any bolts or nuts. I had to use a plastic ebay adaptor. I may revisit this (I still have the part) with some replacement hex bolts if I can match them up. I forget exactly how it attaches, with bolts or nuts (?).

                I'll try checking out the TurboCoupe adaptors if I see one at the jy.
