Hello my fellow nico members.

I have a noobie quesiton. I got my injen intake just about a 2 yrs ago, when is it a good time to replace the cone filter? My car has about 33K on it cuz i just love to travel and its great on gas. also how much would it cost roughly for a new cone filter? and where could i go buy one? So if anyone can help me out that would be great. Thanks for the help in advance.

You do not need to get a replacement filter, you simply need to get an Injen Filter Cleaning Kit, which will bring the filter back to 'new'.

That's the beauty in using a cleanable aftermarket intake/filter..

Or.... you can do what I did.... order a second filter and clean the first at your leisure while the fresh one is on the car. That way, the filter is clean for immediate use and you can TAKE YOUR TIME cleaning the one that came off! Then, there is absolutely NO down time and you can take care to clean the dirty filter properly.

I did the same thing. I went with an AEM DryFlow filter, and I will use the Injen filter (still dirty!) as the temporary.

Can someone post either the part number or the physical dimensions of the AEM dryflow filter?

NVM... 3" inlet; 4.625" top diameter; 6" base diameter; 6.75" length. Those are dimensions for the fujita filter, should be somewhat similar for the other brands.

Here we go. Straight off the Injen website.
Injen's website wrote: Injen Pro Tech Charger Kit for all Injen (RD) Race Division, (IS) Short Ram,(EIS) E Series, SP and (PF) Power-Flow Air Intake Filters
We have the SP series.



I'm gonna do this before I head off to Vegas next week and shall install it when I get back.

Damn, I thought this was the price you were charging for the recharge kit. At first I thought it was a rip. But this is the price for the filter. It's 52.00 on Injen's website.

Stillen Rocks!
