I used to have an Injen filter, it stayed clean but it let in too much air and my car compinsated with more fuel. Do these filters let in a lot more air? |
I replaced the Prius filter
I replaced the Prius filter at about 45k miles. I kept it clean by using a shop vac to remove the dirt every 5k miles or so.
The Del Sol filter was clean when I bought it and 4k miles later it is still spotless. Im wondering if the left coast is dustier? Maybe it's the smog? |

The intake hose goes to the left headlight and sits behind it. So when air goes under the headlight it finds it's way to the intake hose. That spot behind the headlight is clean. The filter is gray. Can't be cleaned off with a a vaccum.

Intake Restriction vs. FE
OK, so I hear that replacing a dirty filter will improve FE; however, I have a restrictor device that blocks the flow of intake air considerably, and I seem to be getting better mileage due to forced, slower acceleration. Am I killing the potential for better FE on the highway?

a air filter is already a good restrictor. Performance air filters like K&N, Injen, and etc let too much air in and the engine compansates with fuel. Just use oem filters which have more restrction but they give the best results.
I was just looking for a filter that would filter out the same as the nissan filter but get dirty slower. |

Really Complicated. Spend some time at the store counting the filter pleats of the different brands that are offered. The more pleats, the slower the filter will get dirty.
