Default screaming eagle airfilter kit

the se airfilter kit 29042-04a, does anyone knows who makes the airfilter. understand they are washable but not to be oiled. also can you put a real k&n airfilter into the se housing. ( hd-8834 ) I read that filter will fit into a stock housing but nowhere I can find if it will fit into a se hi-airflow housing. thanks

Default k&n for screaming eagle housing

I got a hold of K&N today, and they said that the hd-8834 will not fit into the SE air filter housing.( 29042-04a ) but you can use a hd-0800 in that housing.
has anybody out there tried this?

I would do some double checking. I was disappointed when I found out that the SE was not a washable K&N filter. There are other choices out there but I have not decided which way I'm going to go yet.

Dave, what does the filter look like? is it round with a taper ( 6" down to 5" ). my bike is still in the shop I going to pick it up tomarrow, pending weather ( it's been pooring rain for a week ). I think I found one on line and it's worth 33.00 to me to have it have it.

The K&N HD 0900 filter will fit the rubbermount SE air cleaner as a direct replacement for the paper filter.

[Quote from ReddTigger] "Air cleaners are not created equal. Recently I tuned a bike with a Screaming Eagle air cleaner got a baseline and then switched to the NRHS Hurricane Air filter, and retuned. The only physical change was with the AIR FILTER and picked up 6hp and 7lbs ft tq." [This was on an 883!]

Default NRHS 3" Hurricane Air Filter

I was not able to dyno my bike after I changed from the Screaming Eagle unit to the NRHS Hurricane but the "seat of the pants meter" hit the pin stop! The single "most" noticeable increase in power I have done yet. It felt like a different machine all together - like it had a secondly set of lungs. It reved higher and felt more powerful through the entire rpm band.
