on my injen intake? or can I buy a cheapo one at oreillys because I dont wanna order one and pay 50 bucks.....

 

whats wrong with it? just clean and re-oil...

 

bought it from an ******* off this site who shipped it to me with no filter. even tho he said it HAD one.

 

i dunno, i wouldnt trust those lower quality brands. i would only use injen, k&n, or aem dryflow.

 

thats wrong, the seller should of know better and to send it with a filter

 

don't cheap out on your air filter. that's what stops things from getting into your engine. suppose it falls apart, and you start sucking things into your engine. are you going to look back and think how happy you were you saved that 20-30 dollars? If you're going to do it, do it right. If you can't afford a quality filter, don't put the intake on until you can.

 

You could put any filter on it that fits. I have an AEM Dryflow on mine. i would go with a brand name honestly.

 

thanks guys. anyone know who sells k&N or AEM dryflow like autozone or oreilly's or something? I really dont wanna wait to put it on , thats why I dont wanna order one.

 

they should carry some K&N filters. just look and find the right size.

 

autozone carries a lot of K&N's and i believe they can order the AEM if you get the part number

 

Just bring the intake in to the parts store and they will find a filter that fits for you.

 

get a dry flow. oiled filters aren't very good. the oil slowly gets sucked in and gets on your maf sensor and then it wont read correctly

 

You have a car worth thousands of dollars, don't cheap out on an air filter. It keeps all the crud out of your pretty engine.

 

you could just go to autozone and get a spectre filter.. 20$

 

i don't know if you have a parts america close by but they carry the aem dry flow filter on hand. i just don't know what kind of autoparts stores you got down there.

 

or find an import automotive store in the area....typically have the filters on hand.

 

i have a spectre filter from Autozone and i check it about every 2 weeks to see if its doing fine. i've had it on for about 6 months now. seems to be holding up just fine =]

 

its not the structural integrity of the filter us big name company fanbois are worried about. it the actual filtration of the no name vs. the respectable companies.

we're worried about the function of the filter that you can't see at all, and how much **** it keeps from your engine.

that being said, i would never put no name on the end of my intake. mostly for the piece of mind that knowing i have a decent filter brings me.

 

i would not put anything but k&n or injen or a aem dryflow with a hydroshield.

 

hey guys how bout spectre air filters. i jut got one havent put it on yet was just wondering? its really nice ..... crazy mesh the entire thing and its chrome.

 

i have a spectre filter and it's working good actually. I may later on in the future change it to a k&N but the spectre ones are good.

 

i know people who use spectre and have no problems they seem alright

 

Agreed, it wasn't more than a week ago, a member on here installed a cheap filter on his/her Injen intake and was getting a CEL... Then that member purchased a Injen filter, and the CEL went away...

 

I am using the spectre for the time being , I just got an intake and wanted to put it on I will get the AEM when The time comes. THANKS FOR THE HELP GUYS

 

Only true if you over oil the filter.
