I've done that a few times and it seems to clean out good. You just need to let them completely dry so for me it has to be a day I'm not driving anywhere. Dry filters aren't reusable and have more layers so supposedly have more restriction.
ahhhhhh why dont they just make an intake where everything is incorporated haha

Just washing them off and letting them dry isn't a problem! haha just hope they fit...

How many miles do you usually clean them?
