"Have noticed a difference from a dead stop (i.e., red light / stop sign). After light turns green, I've noticed that before the change the normal power would decrease @ around 50 mph. Now, the decrease is less and I don't feel it until around 55-60 mph. I'll check if an increase in mpg's under normal driving. Overall I am happy with my purchase!"

Easy Performance Air Filter

"With the AFE Pro-Dry S Air Filter, you gotta love the fact you don't have to clean the dirt and oil out of the filter, AND you don't have to re-oil the filter. It's dry! Just tap and vacuum it, and if you want, wash it, and you're good to go. Performance seems to have picked up a little. Well worth the price!"

Excellent Filter

"Much happier with the AFe than any OEM filter. The breathability is noticed in the git up and gas milage has mildly improved. The biggest difference is in the fact that there is no oil and no mess whencleaning. reconditioning this filter is a snap...and it works like it is brand new afterwards. Definitely a smart purchase."

Overall better filter than K&N or similar gauze oiled filter

"I purchased a 2004 Infiniti G35 Sport Coupe earlier in November and began researching some quick & easy add ons. The air filter was obviously at the top of the list, there's nothing worse than having a dirty restrictive paper air filter choking the engine out of fresh air. This site, along with other G35 member sites lead me to buy the AFE over a K&N. I've had K&N's in my previous 4 vehicles, but I like the fact that this free-flo filter requires no oil after cleaning. After the fast and painless install, there was a slight but noticeable increase of the throttle response. This filter might flow a little bit less than a gauze filter, but it will keep everything behind the filter *cleaner*. My experience with the K&N's is the more you clean them, the gauze separates more, the holes let in more air, but dirt too. The AFE seems as though it will be better at keeping dirt out with their filter media design, so I conclude that it's a better overall filter in the long run."

A great alternative to paper and oiled filters!

"I've been a fan of K&N oiled filters for years to give that little extra boost to throttle response and mpg's. However, I disliked having to clean and re-oil the media as it almost always ended up too wet after I applied the oil. This aFe filter has been a revelation! It fit perfectly in my QX4's air box and gave the confidence-inspiring off the line improvement I was looking for, while the maintenance will be far easier as it performs it's duties. Haven't done a comparison on the gas savings yet, but with the familiar performance to my previous high quality filters I expect a 1-2 mpg improvement on the highway. That's saying a lot when my Infinity only gets 19 or so now!"

2000 Toyota Tundra 8 cyl. 4.8L

"The quality of the AFE filter is exceptional! Since it's a dry filter unlike K&N it will not coat the MAF sensor with oil. It is also reuseable and easy to clean with just soap and water. I reset the ECU (disconnect battery for 15min.) after installation to let the computer readjust the air fuel ratio. I felt a slight power increase and a lot better throttle response compared to the stock paper air filter. Overall the AFE air filter is great and I would recommend it for any vehicle."

"Wow! I did not expect to notice an instant result like I did. Literally my truck (2010 Tacoma) was choking on the factory air filter. After replacing it with the AFE Pro-Dry S Air Filter I could tell an immediate difference in the way my truck ran; more responsive and no more choking! As for the mpg statement, well I am not sure? I really haven't been able to compare the pre-filter operation with a post-filter operation and mpg measurements. Also, they say that you won't get your true mpg until after 5000 miles. I put this air filter in when I had 1400 miles. For what it's worth I am averaging 18 mpg and I drive about half city and half highway miles to and from work. I think that this purchase was definitely worth it because it stopped choking the engine and it became more responsive, I won't have to buy another air filter, and MAYBE I will see an mpg boost of 1 mpg."
