Default SRT intake - help

I have an SRT intake for my 2001 GS3. It has a weird red hose that attaches to the top of the cone filter. I can't tell what the other end connects to. Is anyone familiar with this? I have some pictures I can post later, just not with me right now.

Anyway, my question is, I want to replace the filter with a new AEM dry flow. But the AEM doesn't have a place to connect the red hose. So....I'm wondering if I can just clamp the other end of the hose and get rid of it altogether....?

Any advice? I want to get the new filter put on ASAP...my SRT is so bad it's allowing dirt to get in and I'm getting very rough idles.

Why not clean it? You should be able to pickup some filter cleaner and oil such as K&N Filter Cleaner And Spray Oil Kit.

I have cleaned it, several times. But I think the filter just needs to be replaced at this point. Can only clean them so many times.
