Need some more details, but did you get this? if so then in this picture on the bottom right take that and mount it to the carb. Just take the 2 bolts out of the stock airfilter (these bolts run all the way through the carb they are long). Put the HPI back piece on and blue lok tite the bolts back in. If ya cant figure out the rest let me know. don't forget to put the metal collars in the back piece of the airfilter housing.

Can't find just the one piece your looking for but this is the best option I can find for you and for 13 bucks cant hurt to have the extra pieces: http://www.largescalerc.com/85444-airfiltersleevesetfor15411.aspx

I'm new to 5th scales. Does this new air filter really worth it? What would you say on a scale of 1 - 10, 10 being really worth it. What does it improve the most?

I would say a 7. If you grease the inner foam that contacts the base, then make it an 8. If you add an outerwears to it, then make it a 9. There is no 10 filter in my opinion, they will all eventually let dirt in.
