The K&N site shows that part number for the Chrysler Crossfire; think we've been down this road already. They are rumored to have a 451 filter in the works, due in a couple of months. Breathless Performance has theirs available to order now.

Coming in 2 weeks our powerflow performance drop in replacement air filter.

so...is the K&N made-to-fit USA 451 air filter available yet?

I called K&N about a US model 451 air filter, they said they were still designing one...

Last I heard from them was a release date of January/February. I think I'll take a serious look at the one that Breathless is designing.

I bought the K&N that was supposed to fit without trimming, it did, it is pretty hard to get exactly centered. I looked inside the box with the borescope and the first time I put it in I didn't have it right. It took me a couple of tries, I have ordered the Breathless and will try that one.
