Panel Filter

So our 2002 MCS needs a new air filter. SInce the wife wont swing for an intake i am looking for the best replacement drop in. I thought about the Alta or Pilo. Anyone know the cheapest place to get these. Buying direct from Alta resulted in a $12 shipping charge to KY! Thanks!

Try Eurostyles East

There in PA. Shipping should be lower and you will practically get it overnight from them.

Pressureizedmini,
shipping shouldn't be quite that much but it depends on if it was going to a buisiness. Plus your sooo far away. If Eurostyles East is close, give them a call. They can also provide Dyno numbers for the panel filter they recently did. Showing a gain over the stocker.

Give Detroit Tuned a call... They are in Detroit (doh) and they have an amazing customer service! You can also email Chad (a very good guy) and ask him for a shipping quote...

Thanks everyone for all the info. I went with the Alta from Eurostyles East mainly because the Alta uses the Uni Filter which I already use on my Civic Si. That means i can clean them both with the same can of cleaner and oil. Less crap in the garage too! Shipping was much cheaper out of PN.

PressurizedMini,
Thanks for going with our part, and hopefully since you are so much closer the shipping was about $6, instead of the $12 for shipping it across the US! Or maybe they just threw the filter to your door step they are so much closer!
