Drop in air filter replacement
I'm due for a new air filter. Does anyone have any experience or insight on a replacement filter? I was thinking of going with the AFE dry drop in filter. Thanks

You're not going to find a higher efficiency filter than a stock filter. This has been covered in depth many times.

Yeah I have read lots of guys over the years saying not to waste money on after market air intakes. I was just wondering if anyone had any experience with this new motor yet? I get the "rubber stamp" answer though.

Rain, the AFE pro dry s filter is spectacular, I had one on my cummins for years and years with no problems whatever. Easy to clean and high quality as well. Also, with a NA gas motor, they don't flow anywhere near the same cfm's as turbo deezels.

The air filters were made by Purolator, however now that Purolator and Wix have been purchased by Mann + Hummel its all the same company. The only odd thing is the fact Ford uses Champion Laboratories for the OE oil filters on all the engines.

This is just a heads up for the ones that live or traveling out west this fall and winter. With all the smoke my Motocraft filter was extremely dirty after only 5K miles. I replaced it with a new one I had with me, I buy them two at a time from Rock Auto.
