Default Dry Filter for CAI

Does anyone know if there is a dry filter for the CAI box. I beleive its a 9inch K&N cone filter. But i don't want it to be a oiled filter i want it to be a dry one. Do they make one that fits ?

Bad idea on the no oiling, that is what traps the dirt. Perhaps try researching AIR Raid, see if they have an equivalent filter.

oiled filter rely on the oil to fill the gaps in the cotton and to trap the dirt. No oil means you might as well toss your used undies on the end of your MAF instead of a filter. Bad idea.

The dry filters you can clean are synthetic (think: nylon type product) and do not deteriorate with washing. Totally different animal. As to if/where you can get one, I got nothin'

The performance cleaner on my Harley is like these instead of the K&N setup. I think I"ll look into these for all my applications.

Amsoil makes the EA cone filters. They are nanofibers. Used one on my old GP. They had the nice S&B style end so it drew air in the top too.
