Just pass it up, you'll gain nothing and end up spending more for a ZJ airbox. I have a bridge I'll sell you for 9 bucks.

Yeah, it spans over a body of water and connects two land masses. I figure if you have some money to spend on something just because it's on craigslist, you might as well buy my bridge.

OP, if you're in need of a new air filter, just go pick one up that's a direct fit.

A K&N for your Renix has a different part # than one for a GC

Hah don't worry I'm sure he meant it just to be sarcastic.
Too be honest the Spectre brand filters do the same as the K&Ns. I have gone through both filters and found no true difference besides the price.

Look into a cold ait intake...the true ones like a cowl intake. Much better gains
