What to get?...

I'm currently running a stock air box with K&N drop in filter. Gibson shorty headers and Gibson cat back exhaust
I'm also running a K&N drop in filter with the stock headers and exhaust. No shortage of power here... but I don't have a SC like Jim... ;-)
Haha.. yeah, but that SC adds like 100HP compared to my +30... so who's the winner here?
What do you guys think about the Aem cold air or K&N intakes? Mine is a 02' so I want al the HP I can get without headers..
I went a cheaper route with Spectre. It works good and roars when you get on it. Plenty of air flow.

How long have you been running it? How often do you go off-roading?
How often do you have to clean it and can you use normal K&N air filter cleaner ?
Is it a dry filter ? I can't seem to get information from the website.

I have been running it for 2 years. Not an extreme off reader. Mountain driving and an occasional mud hole. I clean it every couple months. I heard they are a dry filter but I treat it just like a K&N and it hasn't failed me yet. Driven through high water on the road and it never has a problem. I had one on my GMC Denali for 3 years and never had a problem with it or with the one on my 85 4Runner before that for 5 years.
Seems like a real nice product!!
I may just have to try this one between the price and your recommendation. Food for thought at least for me.
Even if you didn't like the filter, the rest of it is all good and you can get a true K&N cone filter pretty easily.
I found the care instructions on their website. It is a oiled filter like K&N and care is the same.
Jim you might like the actual K&N they go straight to where the air box sits instead of circling toward the fire wall. Although I'm sure you can cut the tube of the Spectre to get it into the same location. I assume your auxiliary battery sits behind your airbox.

I am in california (i know we suck) but i had to go with an old school second hand k & n before they pulled the c.a.r.b licensing so i can pass smog. I have a set of jba c.a.r.b headers ima slap on here soon but i have a custom (welded myself) 2 to 1 reducer in place of the resignatior and a muffler 3" race series tube that came off of one of the camburg racing kinetic trucks. Was trashed cause it had a baby dent and the truck was goin on display. Sounds like no other 2uz ive ever heard absolutely love it
