I purchased the comptech icebox a few months ago, and i noticed that the gains were minimal. I looked at the foam filter and it was dirty. I went and got the RU-2590 filter and to my suprise it did not fit. I couldn't get it on. Please someone out there help. Which is the right filter i should use. I have a TL-P not the type S. Plus for the mean while how should i clean the comptech foam filter?

yeah i did get the cleaner, but the main question still remains. what k & n model number should i use with the Icebox. I got the RU-2590 but it did not fit. What else should i use?

MikePA

The 2590 is the right filter. It's a tight fit on the end of the Icebox pipe, but it does fit. I know because that's what I am using.

TotaLux

how did you get it on. I tried but it just wouldn't go in. I might get it again but i need to know how to install it. when i tried it wouldn't fit.

MikePA

I put the filter on the elbow before connecting the elbow to anything else. I also removed the clamp. It's the right filter.

Does anyone have pictures of the RU-2590 installed in their Icebox? If you do can you post?

MikePA

Help me understand, how would a picture help?

TotaLux

I just want to see the setup. I guess i am really sufering with this foam filter.

TotaLux

I just got the filter and it fits just fine. I want to thank all of you for your help. Thank you.
