I think it will be hard to judge when the AMSOIL is clogged, however, I think its hard to clog it.

You can also blow it out from both sides, if I hit with air from the opposite side I hope I can get most of it out.

If I ever have to replace my Jet Filter it's going to be like major bucks, I hope that one, and it filters a lot more stuff than the AMSOIL lasts my lifetime.

I want more AIR INFLOW to the TURBO!!!


replace the airbox with a high flow cone filter, more surface area to pull in more air, and with a straight piped and the cone filter the turbo sounds amazing :D all i did was cut the tube off the top part of the air box were the intake hose connects and used it as a coupling, you will also have to mount your intake air temperature sensor on the coupling as well, works for me, the sound of the turbo alone makes it worth the hassle for me.



Any chance of posting some pics of your airbox mod.
