Intake guys (filter question)

Hey guys, I'm just curious if those of you with an aftermarket intake could tell me how many miles you have driven before changing the filter.

I had mine put on around 20,000 miles, and am now coming up on 24,000, wondering if now would be a good time to change the filter on the intake. I'm also wondering if someone knows on AEM's site where I can pick up the filter.

i dont know if you are joking or not but most of those filters that i know get cleaned instead of changed. And even you u wanted to replace it, that would be way to soon... shit its even early for an oil filter

Summit racing and Jegs are two good places to buy AEM or other filters. 4k is alittle early and you should be able to clean them.

AEM dryflow is what I like to run...You can wash it and reuse it when it gets dirty...As mentioned summit racing was the cheapest place I found.

Cleaning is what I should have said.

Kudos for the responses.
