So, I have noticed that the air filter installed on my blast is not allowing as much airflow as possible.... I don't really know which specific air filter it is..... It's prolly the stock one....

Is that the K&N Filter???

Anyway..... Should I clean it..... and if so.... HOW do I clean it?

Or should I replace it? With the Blast K&N Performance Air Filter [BU-5000]?

Thanks!

Super easy: Blow the crap out of it with compressed air
Easy: get new K&N air filter ($50)

Little more involved but best choice:

Remove the air box and install custom air intake. K&N will cost you $50. Doing an EZstack intake will cost you like $20-30 more with significantly better results and airflow.

Just did mine and its sweet.
