Default AFE dry filter just ordered...20% off

Hello friends, just talked to Scott at AFE and used a promo "Filter20" to get 20% off my order. Went with the dry one. I've used their stuff in my past Audi and 370z that I traded in on the Stingray. What I like about AFE is they will discount my filter cost when I upgrade to the whole system. With my car 1.5 weeks new I'll just change the filter for now. He did mention the throttle body spacer but the cars too new to be doing that right now, definitely later though.

Went with the K&N due to the price was about $60 shipped, they are all going to flow close to the same, don't think you well notice any difference over the OEM made in Thailand or other.

I got the AFE dry and wet filters, we installed the wet oiled filter but during the first track day at Daytona, the engine sucked oil off the filter into the throttle body and sensors which resulted in "engine power reduced". We cleaned it out, then installed the dry filter for the Road Atlanta track day and had no problems.
