what filter to use?

Hey guys, I'm finally getting soon the G5 GT with 2.4L engine. I'd like to do the air box mod just to have more intake sound and I'd like to know what is the filter I have to use? Are there any filters that I can use dry cause I know that conical filters usually need to be oiled... If there isa dry filter I could use, I'd like to know what brand.

I live in montreal, Canada. Any of you have suggestions for filters? part number?

Thank you guys...

Best advice is to save the 200 bucks and buy a REAL intake. You'll see more performance gains and not hack the **** out of your stock box.

i agree. if you check my video on the airbox mod, you can see that either a 3.0 or 3.5 filter will work (actually, a 3.25 would be ideal)

but, it is very very loud.
