When you reference AEM, I assume you went with the dry drop in filter? If so, how are you liking it? I’ve been a little on the fence about ordering one, I’m not expecting any miracles but in conjunction with a tune (I have Livernois) and 3inch cat back exhaust, was searching for a higher performance filter that may help the engine breath a little more efficiently while of course protecting it. And as I’m sure you’re aware read too many nightmare stories from the popular oiled k&n filters.
The reason I referenced Bae now it's for the fact that I've recently put it in my truck not too long ago. To say the least I wanted to experiment to see how well filter does for improving MPG if any and on how well it keep dirt dust out. Sometimes with aftermarket filters like K&M and other brands you take a high risk and can have dirt and dust go past the air filter which is a big No-No on turbo chargers and
That video reaffirmed what I already knew. If you want to mess up your engine slap a K&N on and watch it slowly get eaten alive. Seems Wix and Purolator at the top of the test. Would also stand to reason Mororcraft isn’t that far off these results too
I'm addicted to this guy's channel...
Great video, pretty much answers my questions about Wix filters. Thanks for sharing.
Some big filter company makes Motorcraft filters to Ford's specifications. That doesn't mean that their self-branded filters meet Ford's specs, though, only that they are capable of doing so when Ford pays for their services.
Wix and Purlator seem to always do well in those comparisons. Almost anything tied to Affinia or NAPA seem to be quality. Well unless you get the cheapest line of product, but that's to be expected.
