Vararam Measurement?
Looking for the inside dimensions of where the air filter installs into the Vararam upper lid. I want to research some other filter options. Anyone got the dimensions or can measure them easily?

So it sounds like the dimensions are a little too big? I have a Baldwin size chart, do you think you could get by with one that is thicker?

5 1/2" X 16 1/2" . The factory foam filter measures 17" long but compresses some whan installing. I'd stick closer to the 16 1/2" if looking for another type of filter that is more rigid than the foam. I did notice on the foam filter that comes with the VR2b that it just looks like the center foam element is just hot glued in. Maybe cut it out and install the center of a k&n the same way?
