AEM Customer Feedback & Testimonials

Whenever I purchase a vehicle, I have a standard set of parts and upgrades that I install. I have bought from AEM before, so when I purchased my 2013 Buick Enclave, this was a must have. The difference is night and day. I also purchased the cleaner right along with my AEM Air Filter, and highly recommend both.

A perfect fit and I'm very pleased with the filter

Great air filter Fits properly in the filter box. I have noticed better acceleration due to less restrictive air flow when compared to the Jeep Renegade OEM filter. Still considering the AEM cold air intake though. Haven't had to use the cleaner yet but I'm sure it'll perform as advertised.

I put these on my past 3 trucks, dont know about the hp or mileage claims, but after the 3rd time you was it, it paid for itself. Great product!

The service was fantastic, I received a courtesy call the day after I placed my order. The intake was delivered ahead of schedule. The product itself is phenomenal, sounds fantastic looks great. Installation was tight due to the fitment of the tube. My only and very minor complaint would be, it would be convenient if AEM would supply a short section of hose and a hose barb to extend the factory vacuum line to the hose mender.

Really good product, all parts feel high quality and definitely has a fantastic whop sound when you put your foot down. Fits into place really well, probably took a total of 40 minutes to install in my 2014 Ford Fiesta SE 1.6L. Really happy and definitely better acceleration all round.

This kit was an excellent upgrade to my ride. The seat of your pants performance gain was noticeable. It fit well and looks good. The sound of my ride changed quite a bit. One friend asked if I had put an exhaust on my car when it was only the intake I had upgraded.

I have had this AEM’s cold air system for more than 5 years & live in California where they have strict smog restrictions. I have been very happy with the performance & have never had any problems with this part. More low end torque form a dead stop, which is what the 2003 XE Frontier was lacking. I tow a tent trailer to the mountains with no problems, no overheating, faster acceleration, no maintenance on this AEM’s cold air intake. It produces a low growl, which I think is bad ass I had also put a MagnaFlow exhaust on my truck to straighten out the air flow so it breaths better. I urge anyone with a 3.3L frontier or any frontier, to at least do this upgrade, all this is doing is feeding cold air into your engine to breathe better Be sure that you get the sticker that goes on the pipe because this is a special sticker that tells the smog check people & dmv that the part is smog compliant. I had to order the sticker from AEM directly & it was no problem, they sent it quickly after providing them the No. off my aem part. Honestly, I don’t really see that much improvement to the gas mileage, but it probably does help due to less gas needed to start from a dead stop. It is quite peppy & has a low growl, I love it The only other upgrade I have is a O2 wire thing (duh) that makes your O2 sensor work more efficiently. What the aem doesn’t give me is the mid range power I am looking for & May get a computer chip, but they are expensive. I still struggle a bit going up an incline & towing in the Sierra’s. It is easier to get up a hill using the AEM intake with taking advantage of the low end torque before you hit the hill, really accelerate before you hit it & it is easier to get up a hill with more power. This is an easy bolt on effortless installation, it is maintenance free, basically, & I highly recommend this product

Great product easy to use and do what is for to do.

The product is great and I've been using it since 2015, i bought a new one just when i clean the old one I can drive my car if needed. I've already been using K&N Ford F150. Thanks for your great service.

Seems to be well built with quality materials. I was hoping for a little better gas mileage which is why I bought it but I haven’t seen that to be true. It’s a nice filter but I haven’t seen any gains in performance or mileage.

Great customer service I messaged a question about this product and received an answer right away.

Fantastic product and easy ordering process for this filter. Once I found the filter with the dimensions that I was looking for, the checkout process was extremely simple. Tracking the shipment was also very simple and the eta was spot on. Well Done.

After driving my 2015 CR-V EX for a few miles, I can feel the difference of the engine response. I would suggest if you can please manufacture a cat back or at least axle back exhaust in stainless to compliment the air filter. I strongly recommend your air filter to my relatives and friends. Please keep making high quality products. If you need to contact me regarding my request to manufacture the stainless exhaust as well as a strut bar for my 2015 CR-V, please send me an e-mail. Thank you very much, Eddie Miranda

Couldn't notice a gain in horsepower or sound but probably because it's a stock air box. One thing you guys could do is make an intake that is legal in California for Honda Civic Hatchback Sport in years 2017+

This is a very high-quality filter and anyone who is thinking the Dryflow technology might be too good to be true is mistaken. This filter cleans the air just as well as any oiled filter I've ever seen or had. I highly recommend it. Great quality from AEM as always.

I like whole idea of not using oil on the filter, I have had in the car about 6 weeks now and really like, fits great. Thank u AEM

Purchased for my new 2019 RAM 1500. Very pleased with the quality and fit the airbox like a glove Looked at the other brand of products too but was the same filter for almost $40 more. Highly recommend AEM.

Installed on my 2010 Chrysler 300 3.5 V6, very easy and straight forward instal the one hard part was the sensor on the intake, other than that the fit and finish was great. If I have a vehicle in the future that needs an intake I will forsure be getting AEM again.

Great product, super easy to install in les than 10 minutes.

Fits my 2018 Pajero Sport/Montero Sport 2.4L Diesel perfectly. I was using the K&N air filter before but noticed it was getting really dirty since it uses oil and decided to start using the AEM dry filter.

I purchased this AEM intake for my 2014 Honda Accord V6 coupe. I have to say I was definitely impressed with the sound and performance gains from this intake. My car sounds so much more aggressive especially at higher rpms. The performance gains are also more noticeable at higher rpms. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone with a 9th gen accord V6.

I love Cold Air Intakes and this is deffinately the best one for your Kia Forte. My 2.0 Forte is a 2018 and had no issues installing it. It is a very nice snug fit with little play and the power increase is noticible along with a nice growling tone for my 2.0l. If you are thinking anout getting an AEM Intake, DO IT You and your car will not regret it.

This system works great, even gave my car a louder growl that I was expecting. Sounds good and looks good. I am extremely satisfied.

Install was a little difficult due to the holes for the bottom bolts not being correctly aligned with the factory holes. Had to push in the bottom right mounting plate to get the bottom right bolt to go in. Can feel a tad more throttle response and more noise coming from the turbo. Overall, I'm highly impressed by this intake and it looks great in the car. Happy customer.

Great price, super fast shipping. I noticed a difference the most in the low-end. It doesn't feel so labored before it finally down shifts. Now it just chugs right through. My only gripe is you don't have a dry flow for the Fiesta ST. I would much rather run a dry flow than the oiled cotton drop-in I have now.

This air intake is very clean sounding you can defiantly tell a difference in pick up and go and pulls in higher RPM. I highly recommend this Intake and AEM in general they have good product 👍🏼

I love the AEM Dryflow air filters. I have been using them on my car for several years now and this is by far my favorite high flow air filter on the market. I really love not having to oil the filter which makes cleaning and reinstallation a breeze. Solid contruction, great quality, plenty of sizes to fit any vehicle, and great price. Customer service is super helpful. Ordering process is easy. Five stars all the way.

Fits good.

I had to replace an air filter that was ruining my 7.3 diesel. This item was easy to search and filters great, with a perfect fit. Customer service was surprisingly good with a follow up phone call. Thanks AEM.

Awesome filter It doesn’t arrive with the adapter bracket for my car but I called the rep and had it shipped super fast; I’m very appreciative of that It has a nice induction sound when I’m WOT so it makes going to work and school more fun. Definitely what I was looking for.

Awesome finish, deep candy red. Fit was spot on and shipping was super fast. Gave my car a nice growl together with my cat back system and it is C.A.R.B. approved/legal so you don't have to worry about those visual inspections when it comes to smog season. Recommend.

Install was as simple as the description; just pull over the filter and done.

Easy to install on my 2014 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport with the 2.0T. Definitely ups the power and makes it sound much better. Very happy with my purchase.

Well made, easy to install, and thoroughly tested. Adds a nice growl and there was noticeable power increase after tuning. I also purchased an AEM hydro shield just for peace of mind in the wet, it fits a lot better than my last one from a different brand. Also very pleased with the customer service. Will be recommending to my friends.

Very easy to install. Great sound out of little 1.4.

I purchased my 2005 Mercedes E55 with 55k miles on it. It had a Stage 1 modification (smaller supercharger pully and required ECU modification). It puts out a little under 550 horsepower. I just installed a new pair of AEM dry air filters last week at 105k miles. The new filters resulted in significant performance improvement I highly recommend this product and will be purchasing AEM filters for my other two vehicles. One hint: The new filters may have some plastic residue from the manufacturing process along the edges of the filter. These can be easily pulled off with your fingers. I recommend doing that before installing them.

The quality of the air intake is great and fits perfectly. There is definitely a noticeable change in sound and it’s fantastic. As for HP gain I'm not eactly sure however it does feel a little peppier. The instructions are easy to follow with pictures. My only thing is I wish the rubber pieces to go on the side of the heat shield came pre cut. It was not a big problem however it would have saved 5 mins. I would definitely recommend buying if you are in the market for a fantastic air intake. At first I got a another intake but returned it after some Fitment problems. If you are looking at another intakes and deciding if you should go AEM or another brand I would go for AEM.

The Best Filter.

I give this product a 3/5 because when I received the intake one of the inlet tubes was missing so I had to wait another 3-5 days for that to be delivered. I also was expecting a bright, vibrant RED like in the picture however the intake appears to be more of a maroon color which wont match any RED accessory I put onto my car in the future. The 3 stars are for the quick and helpful customer service I received from AEM and for the shipping time(arrived very quickly) I do recommend the AEM cold air intakes, just don't get the red option imo.

The filter fit perfectly in my Accent, probably am seeing a slight increase in MPG, and seems to really smooth out an idle problem I was having. Really easy to clean just tap out the dust every once in a while and vacuum if need be and do a wash if really dirty. Had an K&N before on another car the the MAF sensor got fouled up from the oil, this one is oil free, loving this filter 5 stars.

Great product, great price Not my first AEM filter and definitely won’t be my last. Always pleased with their products.

Looks very good and shipment came quickly. I like the idea of oil free air filter.

Happy with the product. It has increased my mileage by 1ltr/100km. However the 2.5x 2 rubber connection hose for the lower charge pipe was not long enough and I had to purchase a 2.5x 3 to insure it did not come disconnected. Overall I am happy with the product.

I would like to give five star review but I can't because I haven't install it yet. I did inspected the product and everything looks breath taking like a new toy.

The AEM DryFlow Air Filter is a step up over the K&N Filter. There is definitely a less restricted flow of air which I can feel in the performance of my 2018 Honda CRV turbocharged engine. I wish that the same filter was available for my 2015 Toyota Camry Hybrid.

This intake is amazing I love the way the car sounds now and it definitely better for VTEC. The stickers I got with it though didn’t really stick. How much are those? But anyways it’s an amazing product

This has worked great the only issue that I had upon installation was that I didn't receive enough dampening rubber. You won't feel a huge change in power but, your car will sound a lot better. I recommend getting the Borla axle back exhaust to go with this which will add a total of around 20-25 hp.

Great filter. Noticed a smoother throttle response, and slight increase in mpg. As for horse power gains, well not so much. I would of given it five stars, but it came with so many pieces of loose rubber attached to the frame that I had to trim off for fear of them falling into the engine.
