I do not have this system but I am considering purchasing and down the line using a dry filter like OEM s2000 or AEM

What did you think about the flange being too big for the velocity stack? I was concerned about a potential leak at the flange.![]()

Just installed today. Fit like a glove. The AEM/K&N filter material was noticeably thicker and unable to see through. The PRL filter in the 3rd pick was very thin as you can see lol
The PRL filter is tight on the intake before you tighten down the clamp. The AEM filter just kinda drops right onto the intake with no effort. But the AEM filter tightened right up perfectly with the clamp.What did you think about the flange being too big for the velocity stack? I was concerned about a potential leak at the flange.
Yeah I was just worried that the flange will bunch up since it's having to be compressed down so much and cause an unfiltered leak. I'll probably throw the AEM back on mine and check for any dust bypass after a few thousand miles. Holding the PRL filter up to the light doesn't inspire much confidence in it's ability to filter hahaThe PRL filter is tight on the intake before you tighten down the clamp.

I will say intake noises are slightly quieter. Like 20% quieter I would guesstimate because of the thicker filter.
I wouldn’t worry about any leaks. It was definitely sealed all around. I have no worries.Yeah I was just worried that the flange will bunch up since it's having to be compressed down so much and cause an unfiltered leak.

Check out what the raw material looks like. I cut one open out of curiosity hahaI wouldn’t worry about any leaks. It was definitely sealed all around. I have no worries.
Yeah, the PRL is super thin…. You can see the floor is white lol and my fingers in the other picture
