Hopefully next week I will remove the intake and take measurements and email AFE to see if they can make me a filter.

You shouldn't even have to email them. Just use this.

Cant wait to see if it works out for you guys.
So if I don't really care about hp gains and just want an intake for the awesome sound, what's my cheapest option? Is k&n acceptable?

In theory you could just put a cone filter on your maf and get noise. But this would be a bad idea.
I am not sure of the exact prices but I would bet k&n, ecis, and afe are all around the cheaper end but don't quote me on that.
Personally I have the afe and i would not hesitate to recommend it to anyone.

I think the k&n tends to be cheaper, which is why I'm kinda interested in that. Definitely always hear good things about afe though, so maybe I'll just save my pennies and pick up one of those someday.
Yeah I would say check a few websites see what the prices are.
I do know that the afe can be had for around 350.

I went out to clean my Gruppe M intake and went to clean it as well.
Seems like the size is a little odd ball.

The inner diameter is around 5 3/8" with an outer diameter of 7 3/4" with no real flange connection. The height of the intake is around 4" with a little silver ball on the top of the intake that is about 3" diameter. The AFE intake BYO section doesn't have these options so it looks to be an email in type of deal.
Side note: it looks like a mini velocity stack in it from the earlier conversations.

That is a very interesting setup indeed.
I noticed the velocity stack thing as well when I went to clean my filter. Definitely a unique setup though.
Has anyone had a chance to call AFE about a dry filter?
I would imagine AEM/AFE put their velocity stack curve on the filter flange where as on the GruppeM it is seperate. It still probably wont make any HP, and I merely got it for sound :) Any real loss/gains are side effects haha.
I haven't gotten a chance to email them, but you are welcome to do so Chris.
