Default Cleaning the JWT Pop Charger

Ok guys....I have had the Pop charger for a while and have been very pleased with the performance. Only problem is that its almost black in color now! ( i guess thats what you get for living in a city ). Basically, I really need to clean this thing...only problem is that i have no experience cleaning oil filters. Im guessing there is proper procedure for doing this. Any advice on how to do this correctly? Thanks in advance.....

BTW. My newly acqurired Nismo Exhaust is MIND BLOWING!!!! Cant get enough of that sound......

My little explination...


You do not have to remove the whole Pop-Charger from the MAF Housing. There is a large clamp that holds the filter element on the velocity ring. Loosen this clamp and remove the filter. Rinse the filter from the Inside-Out (have water flow out of the filter in the oposite direction in which the air travels into the filter). Rinse until the water runs clear. Let the filter element dry for 30-40 Minutes (sitting over crumpled up newspaper helps speed the drying process). Once the filter is dry, apply oil to the out side of the filter (do NOT over oil). Let the filter dry for another 45 minutes. If any white spots appear apply another spray of oil and let dry. Once the filter is dry and no oil is dripping, re-install the filter and tighten the clamp.

Ur supposed to spray the cleaner on the filter first. Inside out, then run the water.
