Need to replace air filter replacement, do I need a new tune?
 
I have a 05 MR with Helix RNA intake and was Dynoflashed a few times, last time being approx. 1.5 years. Question is I don't want to clean and reoil this filter because I am sure I will over oil it or some how screw up the MAF. I can't find anyone who just sells the filter piece, only the whole assembly. If I change to an Apexi filter and keep everything else will this affect my tune. I am not going to change to an HKS or anything like foam, so Cotton to cotton. Thats why I said Apexi or whatever will work. Anyone have any advice or AL?? TIA...

or am I an idiot and should just use my Uni clean kit I had left over from my Comptech intake on my Acura of old? Either way the filter has been on for 35000 + and needs a cleaning or somerthing.

did you try and contact gruppe-s? i believe helix is their brand.

No I did not, but checked their website. They list with or without filter on their intakes, just not filter alone. I will call them now. Thanks, I should have just done that in the first place.

Buschur Racing makes a new filter,like the old K&N but i believe it doesnt have to be oiled. You wont need a re-tune going with this type of filter since you already have a tune for an open element type.
