Hypermax air filter housing adapter (info needed)

[Rot Box]

I go through the flat filters like crazy I probably change at least a half dozen per year. I can shake the debris off them but even then there is a lot that won't come off. My truck spends a lot of time on dirt roads and it can be super dusty out here in the Utah deserts. I'm thinking about ditching the ATS box altogether.


I like how the Hypermax kits use the factory (non-turbo) air filter housing. Do you think the Hypermax filter adapter and rubber elbow would work with my 088 ATS turbo? I like the idea of using the round stock housing because most of the debris tends to swirl outwards and collect on the outside of the canister instead of directly onto the filter.


Thanks for any help or ideas.

Anyway you could get a 6637 in there with a prefilter?

Here is a picture of the adapter with a Hypermax turbo. I shimmed it up to clear injector lines. The hood closes but there isn't much clearance.

Not sure on that one. It would be super tight but I'm sure it's been done before. With a pre filter the open element might not be a bad option. Thanks for the suggestion.

Thats the one thanks for the pic. Just looking at it I think it would work with my turbo. I might give Hypermax a call in the morning and see if that part is even available

I've been wondering if that piece would work with a ATS 088 too since filters for the ATS housing are obsolete......
I also wonder if the intake hat would work too. If it does it means the hypermax intercooler kit could be used as well.

We make oiled pre-filters for all the farm trucks around here. Keeps the dust from the combines & corn choppers from caking up the paper filters. I bet it would work for you too.

You can get a filter off the shelf that works with the 088 housing. I will try and get the number.

I run the Napa Gold 6128's. Super common filter. Used on several Ford vehicles in the 90's

I wrote the size on my core support.. I always forget the number.

That's not a bad idea. Do you put it directly in front of the filter? My only concern would be more restriction. The 088 box is a little undersized as it is imo.

Thanks for the heads up.

For whatever reason I have the 085 filter box. Last time I tried to get a filter for it I was told it's special order only, and I had to buy a whole case to do it......

Just lay it on top of a flat filter or wrap it around a circular filter. Get the coarse grade and restriction will not be a problem, oiled filters work differently than paper, the free air space is much larger.
