Default injen replacement filter?

I just bought an '09 flint mica tc. love it. it has an injen intake, but the filter needs replaced. from the pics, it looks like the one that can be converted from cai, to sri. where can i find the right one? injen website is pretty useless. although it said i need 1017bb, there is no place to buy it. also the dimensions on the website, do not match the size of the filter on it now.

it is, but it looks like someone cleaned it with a pressure washer or something. its all frayed, and i can see through it. which is NOT healthy

You can find it if you search online. Alternatively, you should be able to use just about any other cone filter that has the same dimension (3" opening I believe). Make sure the cone dimensions are roughly the same (length, base width and top width). I cleaned mine a few times but it started to look tired. Last year I upgraded to an AEM DryFlow (
Amazon.com: AEM 21-203D-XK Universal Race Air Filter: Automotive Amazon.com: AEM 21-203D-XK Universal Race Air Filter: Automotive
) which offers better filtration than the Injen and is oil free to protect the MAF. The one in the link I posted also has an additional filter element on the top face to increase the total surface area and improve flow.

This fit just fine on my Injen intake in the CAI configuration.

X2 on the AEM dry flow filter, I will never own an oiled cone filter again...

I bought mine on ebay from a store called "ultrarevparts" you can message them and they will tell you the exact size that come with the injen intakes, they respond quickly within a day. I got an oversized filter for better air flow, it doesn't fit perfect, but I'm okay with that.

No problem. That was the exact one I ordered. The only thing I kinda remembered was that the band clamp was a bit tight, but I either managed to squeeze it on or reused the clamp from the Injen filter. Don't quite remember but it was simple enough.
