stop looking 22% less than 10 microns for the K&N

There is data on AFEs product page but it is scattered. Not seeing size data or if it is the same testing spec.

does it fit over base gt front brakes? I have the same spare, but I havnt tried to use it.

If it's the 18" wheel then it does not.

Looks like the aFe is better but, without matching specifications, its a toss up, and since aFe has 4-5 grades of filters......

I know, this doesn't help at all. Good luck!

Science, HTF does it work.

Here;s a youtuber that compared filters:

that video makes me want a dry filter..........seriously

I doubt it really matters though for daily driving, the main debris we hit is what, bugs? those won't make ti through. I don't live in a desert, so no real fine sand.

its crazy how scientific everything is.

random, looks like AFE done copied velossa techs snorkel, releasing in April. -- it looks longer though than velossa techs. may direct into the snorkel area.

This is the part that has me wondering...

“Hassle-Free Installation:
The 54-13015S Dynamic Air Scoop fits the factory systems, as well as with aFe POWER Intake Systems. This part easily snaps into factory inlet location and requires no modification to your vehicle.”

Like after you remove the bumper?

I read that too. lmao so many people going to be mad when they buy it, open engine bay and not sure where it goes.

I was really suprised with how many particles the KN filter let through compared too all of the rest. Since I do live in the desert for now, I'm going to be sticking with the stock filter.

not a bad idea. I could return my afe oiled one and swap for a afe 3 layer dry filter still. I will decide over night.

I gave up on the oiled K&N filters a couple of years ago.

Do report back - I have this on my agenda to do but I'm not 100% if it's worth it. How's it removing it and installing it?

come drive my car. Or at least play with the clutch and see for yourself.

The Velossa Tech product connects right into the air intake snorkel, it's even "keyed" just like the intake.

Within the last 10 years, we've encounted snow and 20 degree weather more frequently.

hell it was 17F in Birmingham Alabama a couple years back.

You'd be surprised how much "sand" type debris there is on the roads, and with the "big mouth" there's gonna be lots of crap going into the filter. Research high performance dry filters - some are lightly oiled too, like your AFE which might be a more efficient filter than the K&N. Go find the AFE flow and filtering performance specs and see. I think there are some out there that filter better than cheese cloth K&N type air filters and flow basically just as good.
