I acknowledge that the 17+ housings/intake tube and design are slightly larger/different but it was the filter design that was the main reason for the greater surface area.

If I recall correctly the K&N surface area is smaller than the 17+ OEM filter, the media in the K&N allows for more flow though.

Im off to google

The TRD filter size and housing is WAY longer than the '17+ cars too. Plus, there are less bends to the throttle body from the airbox.

My car sits on a trailer, so I'll have to measure it sometime this weekend.
