re: K&N cone filter for Spider

["Robert W. Murphy" <rmurphy@domain.elided>]

Walter,  I have had a K&N cone filter on my 90 Spider (motronic) for about 3 
years now.  I love it, it looks and sounds really cool, and throttle response 
improved a bit too.  I also have the ecu chip from AR Ricambi.  I got the 
filter from MSDS (Michael Schneider Designed Systems) in South El Monte, CA.  
Their number was 626-453-8823.  I just called but whoever answered never heard 
of MSDS.  Perhaps they moved or are out of business.  Their catalog was geared 
mostly for P-cars.  The filter mounts to a metal tube that has a square plate 
welded on the end and it bolts to the AFM.  The hole in the plate is the exact 
same size as the inlet into the AFM.  It also came with a bracket that mounts 
to the valve cover where the dip stick tube is.  But, I turned it around and 
mounted it to one of the holes where the air filter box mounted.  I'm not 
concerned with it sucking hot air from the engine compartment.  The filter 
sits directly in front of the hole in the bulkhead where the stock air box got 
its air.  So fresh air flows right into the filter.

Looking for digester's experience and/or thoughts on the K&N cone filter for a
'93 Spider and possible places to purchase one.
