i wouldn't use that set up either. just go with the stock set up with a red neck filter and an outerwears pre-filter, it's the best set up to run. just take the stock outer filter off and put on the red neck one, then put on the outerwears pre-filter. make sure all filters are oiled well and your all set.

Absolutely!!! The paper filters are better all around...trap finer dirt particles and flow better than an oiled foam filter. For onroad use though, I would use a genuine K&N filter for maximum performance.

Yeah you have to get the filter either online or your local mower shop.
