Vehicle Fitment

  • Universal Fit - Designed for performance vehicles, cold air intake systems, racing builds, and any application with a 5.00 in. intake tube requiring an ultra-compact low-profile clamp-on tapered air filter

Fitment Notes

  • This is a universal clamp-on filter - verify your intake tube outside diameter matches the flange inside diameter of 5.00 in. before purchasing
  • Rubber flange can be stretched up to 1/16 in. (1.5 mm) to accommodate in-between sizes or angled intake configurations
  • An XD (Extreme Duty) variant with identical dimensions is also available as RU-5163XD for high-dust off-road applications
  • Not a direct OEM replacement for a specific vehicle - confirm fitment by measuring your intake tube diameter

Features

  • Multi-layer oiled cotton gauze media delivers up to 50% more airflow than standard paper filters
  • Ultra-compact low-profile design - only 4.125 in. tall with a wide 6.5-inch base, ideal for tight vertical clearance installations
  • Ultra-strong molded pliable rubber flange absorbs vibration and provides a secure, leak-free attachment
  • Washable and reusable - requires cleaning only every 75,000 miles under normal conditions
  • Pre-oiled and ready to install straight out of the box
  • Rubber top end cap for a clean, secure finish
  • Made in the USA
  • Backed by K&N's 10-Year/Million Mile Limited Warranty

Product Description

The K&N RU-5163 is a high-flow universal clamp-on round tapered air filter purpose-built for installations requiring a large 5-inch intake flange in an extremely compact height. At just 4.125 inches tall with a 6.5-inch base - the same footprint as the taller RU-5147 - this filter maximizes surface area while fitting in engine bays with very limited vertical clearance above the intake tube. Despite its squat profile, its cotton gauze media flows significantly more air than any paper element, delivering sharper throttle response and measurable horsepower gains.

The centered 5.00 in. rubber flange mounts securely onto matching intake tubes, absorbs vibration, and can be stretched slightly to fit in-between sizes. For applications requiring even greater dust protection, K&N also offers the RU-5163XD with identical dimensions but Extreme Duty XD cotton media. Washable and reusable, the RU-5163 arrives pre-oiled and only needs cleaning every 75,000 miles under normal conditions. Made in the USA and backed by K&N's 10-Year/Million Mile Limited Warranty.
