It looks a LOT better too!
Anyone have an Amsoil Preferred Customer Account?
- Thread starter Jefe
- Start date
I finally pulled the trigger on it. I bought a used FIPK II kit of a user on this forum, and about the same time started reading all about this (new to me) Amsoil air filter. After reading around for the last few days - I was finally convinced due to the Amsoil Pre-Filter:
https://www.amsoil.com/storefront/eapf.aspx
Especially the fact that the prefilter for the EaAU6075 has the hydrophobic treatment. My main concern in switching over to the open filter has always been the potential of it getting wet (mine is a driven daily). With this pre-filter, I know I'll be a little more at ease.
Now just have to wait for all the parts to be delivered...

I looked on the JLT website and it said that it was a 4x9 filter which is part # EaAU4090. Do you think the 4x9 would fit if it isnt?
Fit perfect! Amazing how dirty mine got. I can hear the air being sucked in again
Did you have to get the adapter plate for it to fit or did it just go right on?
On the CAI? I imagine it would but its going to hang lower in the fender. Never had a CAI that goes into the fender though
JLT RAIs come with the adapter already. I took the old filter off and put the new one on.
EAAU4090 is a direct replacement. Not on the high boost though. I think thats a 12" filter

Awsome, thanks!:rockon:
I meant on the RAI not the CAI the 4x9 would be to large.
Alright here is the measurements for the S&B filter for the JLT CAI.
4" flange ID
6" filter material length
7.5 over all length
6" base width
5.5" top width
I think this is the one that will work. Amsoil part # EaAU4070 What does everyone else think? This is also the one Jefe suggested. Thanks Jefe.

Ya I thought it might be too long. 4x9 is exactly what the regular JLT RAI comes with
If you have the space to make the 4x9 work....I would choose the 4090, if not....the 4070 is the filter for you.

I was hoping you would pop over to our forum and hook my guys up.
I didn't PM you because I didn't want to force the issue.
When my finances improve, I also am going to want to get, what ever the largest 4" ID filter is to replace my oiled gauze 12" on my JLT CAI.
I'm pretty impressed with that product.
Thanks Jimmy, feels great to be welcomed here. :thumbsup:
I edited my post to let everyone know how to do it. No PM required. Oh, and you can PM me to jump in any thread at any time when it concerns engine/transmission/differential lubrication or air filtration.
:beer:
I agree that it's a great product, and you will not regret this purchase.

Which one has more of the zinc stuff? I'm a Royal Purple user so I don't what's what, but I do know Amsoil makes one with the good stuff still in it.:beer:
Really not sure. But I have nothing better to do right now, so I'm going to go and return the 5w30 and get the 0w30 series plus a 4090 air filter for my JLT RAI. Heck I don't even need the air filter yet as my S&B only has about 2k on it. But eventually I'll need it anyways!
They are both about the same levels in ZDDP, so that shouldn't be a deciding factor.
0W-30 has better cold pour characteristics and a bit more robust TBN (detergent) package.
5W-30 has lower NOACK volatility (less evaporation and burn off)
If he lives in a warm climate (Florida, Texas, etc..) and he intends on changing his oil at 15,000 miles or less, I would stick with the 5W-30.
If he lives in an extremely cold climate and drives his car year round, I would opt for the 0W-30.
I have the very next post in that thread. =)
