Everything about Spectre Cold Air Intake

[GRUMPE]

Ron, go back a loosen everything up. then adjust the main tube until it lines up with the rubber mounting piece on the side of the box. Make sure the filter is off for this part, only have the tube hooked to the throttle body. Only snug it down. Then attach the filter to the MAF and then to the tube. Keep the clamps loose so you can adjust them better. Don't forget to hook the radiator hose piece in. Now adjust everything until it is fitting good. Then tighten everything up. Take is out for a drive to get everything nice and warm. Then see if you need any more adjustments.

Now to remove the filter. You disconnect it from the MAF. As you notice you have an inner mount then the mount that does on the filter. These give you all the room you will need to remove the filter. And you get to remove the MAF so you can clean it at the same time.

If you scroll up a little you can see a picture of how my filter and MAF are sitting. If you want more pictures, let me know. I am going to be taking mine apart for cleaning annyways.

I hope this was helpful.

What are you guys using to oil yours with?  I guess I didn't know you had to use oil?? I have some kand n spray, would that work?

Actually the Spectra are not an oiled filtered. You clean them with soap and water and make sure they are completely drybefore reinstalling it. I am purchasing a spare K&N to use while the other one is drying. This is what I have always done with every filer I have had. It may be a little pricey but it saves a lot of time.

I thought the spectre was an OILED filter.  Why would my box include an filled oil spray bottle and a cleaner bottle?

I sprayed my filter before I installed it.  If possable I would rather have the dry filter.

Mine did not come with any of that. maybe different models are different or the newer ones are oiled. I prefer the dry also, it is a lot less work. I have cleaned mine once already and it was not oiled.

Mine didn't come with oil or bottle so I assumed it wasn't supose to be oiled....just checking to make sure.
