Hi all! I have a 08 Tundra 5.7 V8 and I have a TRD cold air intake in it. I do not like the oiled filter that is in this particular CAI. I was wondering if there is a dry filter that will fit the TRD CAI.
If your fear is because the filter is oiled, read this.

Sweet. Maybe I'll just add the TRD CAI filter to my normal rotation of my motocross bike filter clean and oil process. Not my favorite job but I can get pretty good with it with multiple filters in a row. Any particular oil that is recommended?

"K&N" makes a filter recharge kit, available at many discount auto parts stores. It contains a cleaning fluid and spray can of oil.
I think AFE may offer a "dry" replacement for the stock intake, not sure if the TRD is the same size or not.

i don't think that is a problem, especially if the area you live in is not that dusty. However, it is good practice to keep her oiled up.
Also, for the OP - the instructions for cleaning the filter are provided in the aforementioned K&N filter cleaning kit (if you haven't ever done it before) - but here is a link as well if you want to read before you purchase...
