This would be a great and huge help bythabay for those that are not use to working on there cars and even for those do that work themselves but have never done one of those services to the G.

Thank you for taking this on and sharing. I need to change the plugs out so looking forward to seeing that one done.

There are several EA filters you can use. Two have the same pressure characteristics: EAO12 & EA013

The EAO13 is a little longer than stock. I use the stock size, EAO12.

I've also used the even larger EAO20, however, this filter has a different pressure for when it start bypassing oil, so I'd advise against using it.

I don't know much about the AEM air filter, but I know for a fact that even though paper air filter media can loose air passing performance quickly, it always has the best filtering ability. Typically, cotton gauze air filters let through a lot more silicon, and that's something I'd like to avoid.

You can read some more about it here:

Yes, according to the factory service manual, the plugs are due at 105k. It can't hurt to change 'em early though and make a video about it
