CAI

Hi folks
I have some K&N cleaner and oil for air filters and was wanting some input on using this stuff in my CAI system. I know it says to use CAI products but the stuff looks the same to me. Anyone have any thoughts on the matter would helpful. Thanks!

I'm sure it's the same, but like anything every manufacture will try to scare you into only using their product. My guess is K&N has a similar disclaimer that says only use their oil on their filters. The manufacture doesn't only want to sell you the initial product but a lifetime of wear items to go with it and they can somewhat control that by telling you to only use theirs.

CAI

Thanks for the replies guys. I have this K&N stuff and would like to use it rather than let it go to waste. I will give it a try!
