Paxton K&N Air Filter Question

[Fast Too]

Does anybody clean their Paxton K&N Air Filter or do they have to be replaced? Mine is starting to get on the grungy looking side.

Thanks, I also went to their site after posting this and found that product. I'm a duh and should have checked that before asking on the forum

Not to stomp on your thread, but is there a specific K & N # for a replacement of that Paxton Kit filter? I called Paxton just to have an extra while the other is drying after cleaning, and they wouldn't give me a specific filter #, but would sell me a new filter for $135. I called K&N and they asked me for the # off the filter and there isn't one! We know what they are doing, but does anyone know the specific replacement #? Thanks for your help.

I'd like to know that part number too

Be careful not to over oil the filter after cleaning. Just a light spray, and let it wick and spread out a bit before installing. If you put too much oil on it can be sucked into the engine, coating the throttle body and mass air flow sensor on the way.

If you want an extra filter you can get them from most of the Viper tuners a bit cheaper than going to K&N direct.

I plan to follow K&N's recommendation to not use the spray form of their oil for that very reason.
