Also swapped out the PRL filter for an AEM Dryflow filter. Credit to the FL5 member "timestamped" that did the research for the AEM p/n 21-2093DK. See thread below:

I was hoping the filter was small enough to be able to be removed without needing to use the access panel but unfortunately it was way too big. Which is fine, any smaller and I feel we would lose too much surface area for the cone filter anyway.
Still a worthwhile mod, to me, since I prefer dry filters over oiled due to the potential for oil fouling on the MAF sensor. One less step to deal with when it comes time to service the damn thing in (hopefully) another 50k miles.
AEM vs PRL, both Made in USA
AEM filter will not fit through the front inlet
