K&N always has some good looking stickers (IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/stirthepot.gif)

I would love to see that filter housing top in satin black and then maybe add a period correct oil decal if you believe it still needs it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) Yup might get a satin clear on it. It’s powdered by my buddy thick to hide imperfections now gotta wet sand it then satin clear. Where does the oil sticker go? |

Well tuned like 10 hp per lb of boost? |

I think I need to add some Porsche specific decals on the filter housing. What do you think? The housing is modified to fit and want to break up the look a little. Thoughts? You don't need no stinkin' stickers! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/bs.gif) |

I can’t tell are you being serious about the turbo ? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) |

As an aside, been doing research on filtration and K&N does not fare all that well against their competitors in terms of flow. Better than stock yes but overall one of the most restrictive.
Here is a possible period correct application: https://www.early911sregistry.org/forums/sh...r-Cleaner-Decal |

Gosh 25 plus years ago we did testing for an engine manufacturer between cotton/oiled k&n vs paper and the results of internal wear between the 2. K&n engines wore out considerably faster than a paper element |

Now that my EFI is working pretty well and I am working through the tuning process it would be very easy |

I believe that is a factory placed sticker. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

https://shop.early911sregistry.org/products...duction-sticker Early S registry sells a reproduction for $12 I agree, OEM on early 70s MFI 911s It may also be found on Euro delivery 914 6s It came to me on a 914 6 housing at a swap meet thirty years ago. It is turned ninety degrees on a 6 (compared to a 911) to be seen from the drivers side... where the oil goes in (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |

Why is there a dent in the back of the air cleaner????? Only way it would fit so had to massage it. Spent a ton of time on this. I have the engine at stock 914-6 height but the air cleaner just was a PIA but I refused to go with k&n setups. I purchased a few housings but all from 911s and required modifications before the engine lid bracing would clear |
