Dry Flow Cold Air Intakes
08/13/2008 - By NATHAN YOUNG
There are several types of cold air intakes on the market today. Most of which people call K&N no matter who makes the kit. Today we aren't going to talk about the standard oiled K&N type air filter.
We are going to talk about dry flow filters and their differences from the standard oiled filters on the market today. We are going to talk about the AEM brand dryflow filters, and the AFE brand Pro Dry S filters.
There are many people out there that have complained about messing up their mass air flow or MAF sensor due to an oiled filter. They never have any troubles when they first start using the kit. It always seems like it is later on that they begin to have trouble. The reason for this is one of a couple of things. All of the reasons come back to not properly cleaning and re-oiling their filters. When cleaning an oiled filter you have to let it fully dry after washing it. This takes time. Most people are impatient and don't want to wait for it to dry before re-oiling the filter and as a result end up messing up their MAF sensor. The other main reason is over oiling. Many kits today come with measuring tools to measure the correct amount of oil. If you over oil, the filter doesn't work as it is designed to do.
The Dry flow filters bypass getting oil on the MAF, because they don't use oil. To clean a dry flow filter, usually you'll bang out the big debris on the ground and then you wash it. You have to wait for it to dry fully before using it. But you don't have to worry about oiling it. You just let it sit out and dry and then drop it back into the intake system. The dry flow filters filter almost as well as the oiled filters and bypass the worries of over oiling or not oiling properly. The AEM brand and AFE Brand intakes are the only ones that have dry flow filters, but I'm sure many will follow. AEM does dry flow filters exclusively. AFE offers a 5 layer oiled filter, a 7 layer oiled filter and a Pro Dry S dryflow filter.
In conclusion we have found in our experience in the industry that a majority of people these days are starting to use dry flow filters so that they don't have to worry about improperly regenerating the filter element of their cold air intake kits. Those who have had experience with the oiled filters in the past typically like to stay with what they know.
