You can also buy a filter cover that robbed like 1-2rwhp off my cobra but I opted to be 1-2rwhp less and have a clean filter

Same, then you need to oil it. Don't use the cleaner, honestly it's over rated....Just use the KN oil

You get the K&N filter cleaning and recharger kit that comes with a cleaner in a spray bottle, and a recharge oil that reoils the filter.
