Replacement Filter for AEM CAI

I'm purchasing a used AEM CAI from another member on the forum, but the AEM filter is really jacked up and needs to be replaced. Other than K&N, what other filters are out there and reputable?

well AEM and INJEN are made by K&N ($40-$80), so those 3 are reputable. honestly its all up to you, and how much you wanna spend. i'm sure you know that AEM, INJEN, and K&N can be cleaned/recharged ($15-$20 for recharge kit, which will last about 3+ times). IF you decide to go with an affordable filter, you can TRY to clean it. if that dosent work you could always chuck it and buy another. most of those filters run $20-$35.

I actually found what I was looking for after doing some research online at K&N's site and AEM's site. Then after reading some forums here I found a site that sells the filter I need for $32 shipped. Thanks for the input though.

I'm not sure why you wouldn't want to stick with the K&N brand, but make a trip to Pep Boys and you'll find plenty of choices on conical washable filters. Even ebay has quite a few, even with a cheap MAS adaptor for about the same price as the filter alone.

The web site is AJ-USA and the filter is a K&N filter and is $32.18 with free shipping. Not too bad in my opinion.
