So the other day I did the intake resonator delete thanks to this thread http://acurazine.com/forums/showthread.php?t=853546. Basically for me I left in the acura air filter instead of adding one to the end of the intake. Then I realized that since I bought the car a little over a year ago I had never even though of replacing the either of the air filters. I did some research and landed on this WIX air filter for the intake (PN#49063). Found great feedback on it and seemed it was one of the best aftermarket replacements for your money.

I went about replacing the old filter and took me all about 10 minutes. All I can say is that the old filter was probably never replaced before and was nasty :ugh:. This is the top of the two side by side.

Here's the new one. A perfect fit

And THIS is the bottom side of the filter. This is the part of the filter that catches the majority of the goodies from the outside world, and this one had definitely seen its fair share of dirt and debris

So long story short if you don't know when the last time your air filter was replaced, you should probably replace it :thumbsup:
