I use Apexi's "power intake" drop-in dry filter. Bought it off Concept Z Performance for 27 bucks, works for me.
Thanks for the info! Would you recommend a K&N or your Apexi drop in filter? I know everyone is going to cringe when they hear this but when i go home on weekends i drive about 1.5 miles on gravel road. I go SUPER SLOW though so it doesnt hurt anything but that may affect your advice on which air filter i should use.

Well, my opinion is biased because I had no desire in buying an oiled filter. Before settling with the Apexi, I explored the NAPA gold air filter, Amosoil, and the HKS air filter. My Apexi does the trick, no complaints at all and compliments the ztube + power duct removed. At the end of the day it's just an air filter lol, nothing significant will result from whichever one you choose, any, should flow a lil better than the oem paper. Check out the link below at your own discretion.

The NAPA filter is paper... While the NAPA filters better than most other filters, flow is not as good. K&N and Amsoil are really similar enough that there won't be any noticeable difference.

Hate to say this, but it sounds like what my car started to do before the BCM died. you should take it to the dealership and have them check it. make sure you have another reason to go though, usually they charge you just to take the vehicle in to the shop (but that money will go towards repairs).

Are you getting emails from members or as a result of post replies? If it's the former, then I dunno. If it's the latter, then you need to turn off your thread subscription settings by going into UserCP --> Edit Options --> choose "Do not subscribe" or "No email notification" from the dropdown menu under "Default Thread Subscription Mode".

Alternatively, you can first click through one of the emails you received, scroll all the way to the bottom and click the link that appears under this line:

"To unsubscribe from ALL threads, please visit this page:
[click this link here in your email]"

Then adjust your subscription options.

How do you disable the interior third brake light? I have the spoiler light as well, and the one inside and the spoiler one turns on when I hit the brakes. It annoys me.. Any insight? I looked all over the forum. Went to all the DIY and used the search button already.. no help. Thanks!

^^haha mine did last week! it used to only turn on when my sub would hit beats. i thought maybe the guy that hooked it up did that to be cool. A month later it just quit. I didn't really care for it anyways.

I did the no e-mail notification and still not working. If I click do not subscribe will it still show me on driver that a new post was written or will it stop that too along with no e-mail?
