CAI care help

Sorry if this has been posted elsewhere, and forgive my ignorance, but could someone tell me what maintenence is required for a CAI? I've got the SLP blower and Blackhawk CAI with about 600 miles on it so far. I thought I remember something about neeeding to clean a filter periodically. Thanks!

You need to clean it at least every 5k to 10k depending on driving conditions..They make a cleaner and a oil for this process.

If your CAI has an oiled filter, you need to clean and re-oil it periodically, like every 12K miles (more often if you drive on dirt roads).

If you have a dry filter, you should replace it at about the same interval.
