I like the weatherstrip idea.
I will keep a closer eye. I guess what I'm really curious about is the rubber seal dimensions (eg., lip height) on both filters. That seems to be the critical measure Dean is talking about ... since it's largely what governes seal pressure. That info. is not readily available and can only be gotten probably with a micrometer.
But ... I will say that the 2166 is exactly the same dimensions (LxWxH + seal lip height) as the factory filter. All I know now (from REM's post) is that the 2663 is 0.12" wider. That simply means it hangs over the edge of the lower airbox. Would be great to find other lip height dimension.
The 2166 did seem seal properly. IE., I could tell that the upper airbox was just slightly compressing the rubber/poly seal when I put the clips back on.
I won't recommend the part until I have lived with it more though. Any things I should look out for?
