Isn't the comptech icebox filter reusable? You should be after to clean it with a air filter cleaner kit.

the K&N fits the smaller OEM air box lid, but runs a little small on the comptech lid. it can be used, you just need some weatherseal around the edge of the box to create an air-tight seal.

try searching this section of the forum. there is a diy on how it looks and what materials are used. i used it for my k&n/icebox combination.

has anybody tried putting in a dryflow filter into their comptech icebox? They dont' seem to have any filters that fit the OEM tsx filter, but maybe by chance the comptech? hahaha

??

the K&N filter fits the stock airbox. it runs small in the comptech lid, which is why you need weather seal to ensure a quality seal.

the comptech foam filter fits the comptech icebox (obviously). it won't fit the stock airbox--bigger filter for bigger volume lid.

Maybe i should have been more clear. The DryFlow Filter is made by AEM. They currently don't have any filters that will replace OEM Acura Filters. I'm wondering if by chance if anybody has tried to use one of the other AEM DryFlow filters on the comptech IceBox.
