I run an AEM dryflow filter, but it's a 9" cone. I assume you are looking for a stock filter? The stock paper filter, isn't supposed to be very restrictive. Not sure what I think about that. I've run a K&N in my gutted stock airbox, back in the day.

I run a round barrel shaped one, it is about 6-8" long with a 4" diameter. I can get you pics later if you want and exact measurements.

How old is your CT kit, they have been suppling K&Ns to go right on the turbo for a couple years now.
Be careful of that filter you have if the center nut gets loose it will suck right into the turbo. Its happend on a couple cars.
Clubgp had the part number in a post located in the turbo section. Do a search, its a pretty small filter
