AEM 28-20395 DryFlow Air Filter: Enhancing Air Quality and Performance Review

Need a replacement filter and I like the oil free ones for the turbos in the car. Might go with another company that requires you to oil the filter but I like the dry look. Used AEM in other cars and this one is just as good. 2011 Flex EcoBoost

Longtime K&N user (20+ years) on multiple vehicles. Stumbled across this one that looked similar and piqued curiosity. Bought one and am very satisfied. Filtering is comparable to K&N, there is no difference in HP. On the plus side, this filter can be easily washed and reused, unlike K&N filters that require a thorough cleaning and re-lubrication.

If so, I highly recommend sticking with the paper filter and checking it regularly.

wow i wish i could give this one more than 5 stars. Sometimes you find an exceptional product that performs better than expected. That's what *should* be built into cars, not that shitty piece of white paper. After replacing the air filter it was noticeable. Acceleration was so much better, it was crazy. Old air filter? Dirty but ok. I've had multiple cars and changed multiple air filters and have never experienced anything like this. I then changed the filter on a friend's car and experienced…

Well I am very pleased with the performance of the AEM Dry Flow Air Cleaner. I had a good quality Wix air filter in my 2015 Taurus SHO that had basically 72,000 miles on it. I wanted something less restrictive, but I didn't want to spend more than $300 on a cold air intake. I tune the AEM on Sunday afternoon, reset the trip computer and I'm averaging 25.2-25.3mpg, about 85% highway/15% city, and throttle response is vastly improved (still some turbo lag, but not by much terrible). I would…

I was a bit skeptical about purchasing this filter and wasn't sure if there was an improvement. After driving about 500 miles with this filter, I decided to do as controlled a test as possible to compare the AEM DryFlow to the stock Fram paper filter. I had ridden about the same number of miles with the new Fram filter prior to installing the AEM filter, so all variables in my road text were kept to a minimum. The road test was done on the same track with both filters and I tried to be as…
