with a graciously accepted 50$ gift card to AAP today, I decided to tinker around with my Cold Air Intake...
Swapped the K&N Coupling and Filter with the Spectre Performance ones.
I feel like the Spectre cones are a little better than the typhoon style K&N Cones. (Plastic vs Metal base, etc)
Regardless, the Spectre came with the gaskets to fit to a 3in pipe, and it all fit pretty easily. total time to do was around 20 mins and 3 lonestar beers.
Circa 7/2014, OEM
Circa 7/2014 K&N
Today Spectre
The inside of the CAI tube was perfectly clean after I took it all off. Wiped it all down and cleaned the out inside and out with carb cleaner. wiped dry.
the K&N wasn't too bad looking after 20K, will keep it.
cleaned under the hood as well, wiping everything down
