Construction & Design

The AEM Dryflow filter features a proprietary synthetic filtration material that is both highly effective and easy to maintain. Unlike traditional oiled cotton filters, the Dryflow media is oil-free, which prevents over-oiling issues that can damage sensitive engine sensors. The filter is engineered to provide a balance of maximum airflow and superior filtration, ensuring your engine breathes clean air while maintaining peak performance.

Its robust frame and sealing design ensure a secure fit within the factory airbox, preventing unfiltered air from entering the engine. The washable nature of the filter means it can be cleaned and reused multiple times, reducing waste and replacement costs over the life of your vehicle.
