Air filter profile difference?

Post by vic-vtrvfr »

Hi folks.
Recently bought a Tyga carbon airbox cover.
Went to test fit it earlier & I noticed that the filter I have doesn't fit into the location groove in the lid.
I did receive a filter with the lid, fits perfectly but the element has been cut out of it. Looks like a standard filter apart from that.
Is it common for filters to differ in profile & not to seat properly in covers like this?

Vic
