Filter inside the IACV?

the filter is a MUST i think! it plays the same role as your actual INTAKE,CAI, lets it breath smooth and keeps it from something getting stuck in there and chocking!

i didn't take it out. i bought the iacv missing the filter. the filter is a circle and so is the hole, but for some reason it doesn't fit if you just push it in. the hole might be a little too small, but not quite sure.

some of them don't have the filter... the main reason for it is to keep carbon build-up off of the internals. but if it gets clogged or the idle starts screwing up just clean it out with some carb cleaner or brake parts cleaner. that should work fine.
