CAI and steam cleaning

Hey guys,

being the **** retentive guy that I am, I want to keep my engine and bay nice and clean. With this in mind, I intend to steam clean it at regular intervals, but, what if I have a CAI/dry filter on the car, is this going to damage it??

Thanks in advance


- Jake.

What I would reccomend to you is to go to your local auto parts place and pick up a can of CD2 engine detailer. You spray it on and wipe it off. It works awesome and smells great. If you use that you wont need to worry about the steam at all.
