I've searched K&N's website, and the only part they list for the 07 3.5 is the oil filters, so I'm assuming they do not manufacture an air filter or intake of any kind for the car as of yet.

Does anyone know if there are Drop-in "Hi Performance" or "HI-FLOW" Air Filters made for the 07 TLS 3.5 which fit in the factory air box?

I'd love to install a Cold Air Box in my engine compartment, but don't want to deal with a through-the-fender install of a CAI. Until someone steps up to the plate and makes one, I would be happy just to drop in a high-flow replacement filter but can't find any of those either.

Any of you parts suppliers know of anything I can use?

 

if you want, you could switch out to the 3.2 from 04-06 box which has the hi-flow filters for it. the 07's have a new shape with a corner cut off, so there currently is no filters for it.

 

Thanks for your reply!
I know that's an option, but trying to stay stock. I have a feeling that because this is the last year of production for the 3GTL that K&N won't bother producing a filter. I may just have to build my own CAB from aluminum or plastic, then order a short pipe and K&N cone filter. But once again, I'm trying to avoid all that, and just drop in a filter using the OEM intake.

Anyone else?

^^^ Good find STILLHERE, thanks for posting it!

Not a bad price at all, considering it's like 50 bucks just for the filter. But I think I'll pass...still wanting something that FITS the OEM TLS box, or to just build a CAB myself.

 

honestly only a matter of time before k&n drops the filter, but sheesh they are taking forever

 

If more of us place a request on the Type-S K&N Filter, I'm sure they'll stop scratching their butts and make one.

Already have done that...so come on guys, send 'em an email!

 

I agree with ChicagoBurbs email them and they will make it. I keep hearing another month.

 

they make one for the 07 rl ??? wont this fit?

 

the filters are in!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! tl type s ...i just ordered mine!!

 

YEAH...It finally has a part number and a picture!!

Where did you order it from? How much?

 

i got it from k&n's website it was like 50 bucks plus shipping...they sent me an email saying they were in!

 

^^^ Thanks!

About time!!

 

I got mine at autoanything.com for $37.50 with free shipping.

 

Ditto!!

 

ordered mine last night!!! Made a big improvement with my 04. Can not wait to see what it does for the Type-S

 

Just got one as well for my 08. Hope it comes soon!

 

It looks like K&N has produced an air filter for the 2007 TL-S. According to K&N's website the part number is 33-2379.

 

Does it offer any boost ?? Im getting a CAI soon soo I should still get a air filter

 

isn't the air filter for the AEM CAI pretty good itself??

 

i just ordered mine through autoanyting.com too

 

well I'll be ordering mine when it's time to change the original one

 

CAI Comes with it's own filter. When you install it you have to remove the box that holds this one, so it would be a waste to buy one.

 

hey guys are you talking about the filter alone which goes in the box or are you talking about hte various air intake kits? which one provides the best performance increase? Sorry i'm really new to this. So with the air filter you just drop it into the box and you're good to go? Does it make a dramatic difference in performance and mileage? lots of the CAI are not legal in our stupid state of California... emissions!!!

 

They have a drop in air filter for the 07 TLS air box. Takes about 2 minutes to install. No major hp gain, just got mine for better filtering and don't have to worry about getting another replacement.

 

Just got my K&N Air Filter. I think I was the first one to request a filter from K&N. I bought the car in January and ordered a filter from AJUSA for a 3.5L RL. Of course, since there was a minor change in the engine compartment for the 2007 TL's it would not fit. I sent it back and had to pay a restock fee. I called K&N to ask if they had one. They said they didn't and needed me to send in a request to have them make one using their website. I did. I was notified several weeks ago that they now have one.

I ordered mine from Autoanything.com since AJUSA said that they could not match or beat Autoanything.com's price. Their price was $42.50 delivered versus $37.50 delivered.

The K&N part number for the 2007 TL Type S is #33-2379.

I believe this part number is also the same for the 2007 TL also.

I received the filter 2 days after ordering it. Installed it in less than 5 minutes and was a piece of cake to install. It fits like a glove.

I didn't notice/hear any difference between the stock versus K&N filter. I hope to see at least 1 mpg at the pump. If not, no big deal. I now will never have to buy an air filter for the Acura again.

 

This filter is now going for $49 on autoeverything.com. Is there a cheap place to get it?

 

Why do people persist to respond to old ass threads.

Between 42 and 50 is an average price.

 

because this is thread that I found that had what I was looking for. If have a current thread bump it so we have the latest information instead of whinning about someone bumping an old thread....

 

ohh-k...

I've bought mine from autoanything.com for $38.50
They had a sale...

Here is a coupon for $10 off I got after I purchased it...see if it works SC77934

 

thanks, but this doesn't work on this

 

that sucks

I've just looked at my emails from them, they seem to do 10% at the end of every month... so you may want to wait... But the price did jump $10.

(if you want the truth, I haven't noticed a difference with K&N and Stock filters....thus I bought an AEM CAI, waiting for it to finally come in)

 

I'm not sure why people insist on buying a product that offers absolutely no performance gain yet filters far worse than stock.

When Amsoil finally makes a drop in filter for the TL I'll be the first one to buy it. Far better filtration then even the stock paper filter and better flow than the K&N plus no oil needed and it's washable.

The best thing the guys with the CAI could do is order the appropriate Amsoil EAA filter. Dirty air will wear a motor out faster than dirty oil.

 

ok thanks, the cost saving in the long run is enough for me. I had a K&N in my 2nd gen and I put 160k on it with that filter, all together I finished with 200k. would have ran it to 300k but I totaled it....
