AEM Dryflow Cleaning Kit

"I have a K&N with an AEM dryflow filter. I've gone back and forth between the CAI with both filters and the stock intake. Before the headers it was just a big noise box. With the headers it quites down the CAI quite a bit and seems..."

"just installed a AEM dryflow filter on my TRD cai...........after looking around for awhile:D part number is 21-209EDK 6" inlet x 5", got it on Amazon. com for 50.00 shipped. Just tightened the clamp slowly to compress rubber..."

"that was what I experienced with the Altima. Blackstone tests before and after showed very high silicates with the K&N as opposed to the AEM Dryflow I used after my MAF died."

"So do you think I should switch to the AEM Dryflow drop in? I rather have what's best for my engine. "

"^Yeah, the Amsoil is also a dry filter much like the AFE or AEM Dryflow, though more expensive."

"You might also look at the AEM Dryflow. Also a good non-oiled filter that I've used in the past."

"I will never use an oiled filter again. It's old technology being used on new vehicles with many electronic sensors and such that can be affected. With options like the AFE ProdryS or the AEM Dryflow (I have/had both), there's simply no reason to use an oi"

"Personally, since you bought the truck with the existing CAI, I'd get an AEM Dryflow or AFE ProDry S cone filter and replace the TRD one (Yes, the TRD is oiled)."

"^Depends on the brand. With the AFE, you can tap it, vacuum it, or wash it. Each method gets it progressively cleaner, obviously. I know with the AEM Dryflow (had one on my Altima), you use a cleaning kit."

"A very common experience for many (most?) people. I can't prove it but I believe the K&N I had on the CAI in my '05 Altima caused a MAF failure. That was the last straw for K&N for me. Get an AEM Dryflow."
