ITG drop in air filter oil

[TurboHank]

Hey guys,

So I was given a new ITG drop in air filter but it was not factory oiled. What kind of air filter oil and brand should I purchase to oil the filter?

Thanks,

H

Hey thanks for the response. Looks like I have the profilter (HMP-526) which according to the link you provided does not require re-oiling. Yet, when i squeeze the filter, it is not factory oiled. Better stick w the stock filter for now then.

So after more focused online searching, this is what I found. No-toil evolution aerosol air filter oil. Works for any type of foam air filter apparently.

You may run into a risk of over oiling the filter. If the plastic bag that covers the product is bone dry and the filter feels dry to the touch, I would have it exchanged. The filter appears to be a disposable one that supposedly to last 3 times longer than the paper filter, but it doesn't seem to be designed to be re-oiled. You don't want excess oil to contaminate the sensors in the air intake.

You don't want to risk choking the airflow or not having good filtration properties. Order a K&N drop in from knfilters.com. It comes properly pre-oiled and fits perfectly FWIW.

Yea, I read about that. Too bad I can't take it back to the factory since someone just gave it to me. I am not using it currently since there is no filter oil on it, just sticking with the stock one for now.

Yes I might just do that. Had to look up FWIW online tho, haha.
