I got the kit on my Evo is it ok to clean it with the K&N cleaning kit. Also heard the apexi filter is dry and doesnt need to be oiled. Anyone comfirm this? Thanks!!!

 

just out of curiousity, how are you liking the apexi intake? I have been considering buying one.

 

the filter is worth its weight in gold.. i havent seen that it was reusable though..

 

Well it came on the car when i bought it so i have no clue how it compares to a stock air box so i couldnt tell ya. but so far its doing really well. All i did was take some pressured air and blowed out some of the dirt and such

The filter can not be cleaned. It should last for a very long time. If it gets too dirty, just replace it. Replacement filters are about $70.

 

does the drop in filter increase performance?

 

where do you pick up replacement filters?

 

The filter is a DRY TYPE filter. It does not need cleaning and regular replacement.

DO NOT clean it. The K&N is oil based and is a completely different type of filter.

I have this filter on my Evo and have used it on other cars, if you guys have specific questions, please ask.

 

I also had that Apexi intake in my evo. If you are into having an intake, the Apexi might be the best intake for the Evo. Its the dual funnel that makes it work like the stock airbox. Its does not need any cleaning ever. Never cause any problem on the dyno.

 

you do needa replace it eventually tho right? that was hwat i was asking... when and how do you replace the cone... apexi has them on their site... but no info.

 

That is a question you'll have to ask Apexi. As far as I know, you never change it.

 

how is that... tha'ts what's freakin' me out
