Upgraded my Injen filter
After having a buzzing sound from my intake drive me insane for the past month, I decided to get a different filter for it. I had a Berk intake a long time ago, so I decided to get the same filter as that one had.
The buzzing is gone and there is also a slight increase in power. Although my butt dyno has never been very accurate, I am 99% sure that I gained 1-2 hp from this.
For more info, go here.
Look at the size difference:
Also, fit was not an issue at all and this actually extends the filter even further below the radiator/battery making this more of a true cold air intake.

No, I didn't have to remove the splash guard. It has PLENTY of clearance.

Wow, looks kinda dirty. Maybe I should check mine too. When I first got the Injen, I was getting like 30-31 mpg hwy, but not it dropped a few mpg. Maybe cause it's dirty??
What do you guys use to wash the Injen filter??

i guess simply put, it's good to know that the injen is some generic filter that is always in need to be replaced sooner or later.
btw, i had 8k on my filter, and it was just as dark as asu's.
