Cool K&N Recharge Kit

All I can say is WOW!!

I've just used it for the first time and I must say that it works damn good. since having the FMIC this is the first time I've owned a K&N air filter and was so used to just buying another one if it gets soiled...etc.

well my intake filter was filthy to the point where there was GUNK (for lack of a better word) covering 100% of my filter due to puddles...etc over the time I've never cleaned it since...

All the gunk is gone and I could see a totally clean filter (white in color) after cleaning it.

Do you even have a K&N? and if so I got the filter cleaning kit at Ron's Performance. And Justin if you read this I still got that cleaning kit if you want it.

I hope that after you got it clean and white, that you remembered to spray it with the oil and bring it back to red before you stuck it in the car...

shut up.
if you like i'll start one just for you.
for those with the filter in the fenderwell, i suggest you check your filter more often than prescribed.
