The photo you posted doesn't show the filter....anyhow, the stock plastic backing plate is what is missing in the photo and that does not mean its a 'high flow' filter...it was probably removed to allow more air to get to the replacement filter hidden behind the air cleaner cover which i'm guessing is a high flow filter since they took the backing plate off......just loosen the bolt off the front of the air cleaner cover and then you should see 3 screws through the air filter.... take the air filter off and look for serial numbers or a label and research what it is....

i use a K&N high flow air filter because relatively inexpensive and washable and last practically forever....

Please don't give info if you do not know what you are talking about. Can you not see the Screaming Eagle backing plate? It is there in plain sight. It is a high flow.

I clearly see an SE Backing Plate, it is a high flow. People should not chime in when they do not know what they are talking about.

**** face? I am not your wife.


If you don't know what you are talking about, then say nothing at all. If you had 1/2 a brain, you would have seen the SE air cleaner backing plate and known that it was a high flow.

Well enjoy your posing.
