So I'm looking to upgrade the stock filter to either a K&N drop-in or AEM dryflow, has anyone else here installed either? The reason I'm going with these is becuase I don't want the SES blinking at me. So for those that are going to tell me to get the K&N intake kit, don't becuase it's out of the question. Has anyone here had any issues with just a drop-in giving service lights, or are they even worth it over stock besides hearing the S/C at higher RPMs?

Also, has anyone rigged an AEM dryflow to use as a stock drop in? What size filter did you use?

 

Go to the "how to" section and look for the air box mod.

 

our cars do not like oiled filters.
the Maf sensor is very picky, and the oil from K&N filters tend to gum it up and cause problems

Ive had aem dryflow since i bought my car. both as a dropin, and on the end of my K&N Typhoon cold air intake.

my CEL has never flashed at me even for a split second.
I highly recommend it.

for a direct dropin you will need a 3.25inch inlet, with a 5 inch length.

 

I have the AEM Dryflow dropped into my stock airbox. It works perfectly, no CEL after 1000 miles, and it is an easy install.
