Hey does any one know what the filter size is for the tC using the injen cold air intake?? I'm going to be changing the filter at my next oil change...want to make sure to buy the right size filter. I think it is 2.5 but can some one verify...also since the injen filter is oil charged...is it bad to change to dry filter??

 

It's 3.0" and you can go to the dry filter, no problem, or clean and reoil the original one.

approx. how much does the filter cost?
and is it easy to change?

sorry bout the thread jack

 

Why would you buy a new filter...unless yours is damaged somehow. These filters are designed to be cleaned and re-oiled.

 

the AEM dry filter should cost around $45. Installation is pretty easy.

jack the car up on the driver side
remove plastic weather guard
swap filter
done

 

any benefits of switching from oil charged to dry??

 

thanx dp :D

 

you don't have to deal with oiling/over oiling/possibly messing up the MAF due to over oiling, supposedly filters out 99.4% of crap down to 1 micron....

It's also alot like a drop-in filter except round, so where a regular cone filter would dent and probably be permanently damaged, the dry filter would "bounce" back.....

 

thanks for the info on the dry filter buddy...i really appreciate it.
