i use an old spray bottle and use some degreaser in it with a rag and just spray and wipe and that seems to work really good....

If you are taking the Hemi hat off it will be a great time to remove and clean the throttle body. It will be dirty on the inside, guaranteed.

If you are making your own CAI then you can get any filter you want. K&N makes a few Universal fit ones. Just make sure you get the right size intake side to match the pipe you are using.

Here are a couple of the CAI Links I found and used to make mine.

wow! i never thought of makin one myself until now. thanks guys!

i bought a cold air intake and i didnt like it, when i gave it full throttle, it sounded like exhaust was coming out of the intake, real bad noise! put the stock back on and it was just fine! will making one myself make the same noise?
