K&N

AEM DryFlow
Never oil a filter again!

 

to put aem over K&n in terms of filter is rediculous

Nope, AEM has been making their own filters for a while. The old oiled filters are really simple, just cotton gauze material with a metal screen on both sides.

 

wow then i really haven't been here for that long lol.

hmm i guess i'll lookup this AEM DryFlow filter, but i still wouldn't thumbsdown K&N.

I also give a for this one but it's not really a big deal when it comes to the filter

 

Check out this video from SEMA.....just wait out the talk on truck headers, but the last 2/3 of the video is on the dryflow filter.

but how is it performance wise maybe against a k&N or HKS ?

 

get a velocity stack

 

just get itb's and forget the filter

 

actually i saw a thread a while back that had an independent comparison on filters. they tested, flow, amount of filtration, and how long they last etc...

If i remember correctly the apexi power intake filter was the best on every test. With k&N comming in a close second. I was pretty surprised.

I bet the aem dry filter is better than the k&n because its basically a copy of the apexi one which is better than k&n.
