get 3.5" pipe and a spare rubber coupling. put the coupling on the pipe and cut off the excess. then slide the filter over the rubber part on the end of the pipe and clamp it down.

Yea I have thought of that but that's a lot of rubber clamping down around the filter...I could put some silicon around it or something ot seal the two together but its a lot of clamping force around a part that I don't need to let dirt get it. My TPI system is a 4" around the throttle body so I thought about going 4" but 3.5" would flow enough. But still not the point, if I can find some 3.75" pipe, that's what I would like to go with b/c I found 4" to 3.75" reducers and wouldn't have to worry about the filter not clamping down.

get a 3.5" and have the muff shop expand the end of it to 3.75.
