I was wondering if they are worth the money and which one is better for my 88 bronco 302 EFI

I have an FIPK on my truck...but mine is MAF eqiupped. You can buy that K&N filter for your truck for ~$40 and make your own FIPK for far less cash.

How do you do that?
I've always wondered on how to get better air flow. Is it really hard?

Moose...

Are you MAF or SD?

Basically you buy the filter for the Speed Density setup (if you are SD) and cut about two 4" lengths of 2.5" ID piping and hose clamp it all together.

If you are MAF, I'd just buy the FIPK. It is cheap around $120. I have one on my MAF conversion truck

M'kay pop your hood and check to see:

If you have two hoses from your throttle body to your air box you are SD.

If you have two hoses that go into a single tube to a big metal piece with a wiring harness to it, you are MAF.

Check my User Gallery for a pic of a MAF setup.

I have the SD with the two tubes and have the K&N stock filter replacement. Can I buy just the cone shaped K&N filter and rig it near the manifold? They want $220 for the whole kit.

I would keep it off to the side where it is now that will keep the intake temps down.

This is how'd I'd make a po' boy's FIPK... cut about two 4" lengths of 2.5" ID piping (or however large the stock intake piping is) and hose clamp it all together with the filter at the end. Keep the stock tubing where it is.

steve@sandsperformance has pretty good deals on K&N stuff, it is worth checking out.
