Did I mention I got me a Magnaflow exhaust system for just a hair over 400 bucks Canadian? It pays to shop.

Mugen....buddy....fellow Canadian & patriot....you didn't leave your post up long enough so that someone could respond to it! Had I seen it, I would have definitely responded. You know that!.....SORRY man!!

This subject was previously discussed in-depth on this thread: Clean or replace your own cabin filter, improve air flow & save a bundle

I already got conned into paying the big bucks for mine at my dealer and I'm IN the HVAC business! As far as washing/cleaning the filter, I don't recommend washing it as the result will be a "smelly sock" pungent odour. Blowing the filter out will not renew it's efficiency and will defeat the purpose of having a filter in the first place.

I can vouch that fan performance as well as cooling/heating output will be enhanced greatly once this filter is replaced.
