After cleaning my TB, air filter, and adding some FI cleaner, my X seem to idle a little smoother
I purchased the Dinan cold air box shortly after I bought mine new. It came with a K&N filter. I have driven 112,000 miles. I use the recharger kit once every 5000 miles (Texas is dusty) and replace it after 2-3 cleanings depending on when the new color is not restored by the recharging kit.
