Aem filter gain over stock

[2010 Infantry Vet]

Just ordered an aem dry filter. For those of you that have done this have you noticed a difference...at all?

From just the filter? No gain would be expected unless the filter you took out was clogged or something.

Even a quality aftermarket intake will have negligible gains on a stock engine.

Sounds cool when they suck air!

I figure it wont do much till i get a tune. The better flowing filter and a tune and long tubes should be enough for me. Not wasting money on a $300 cold air intake when the factory intake is a great design. And it will be useless then a whipple is added to a forged motor

You only get more horsepower if you put the AEM sticker on the back window.... hahaha!!!

The long tubes will be the biggest difference for sure as well as the tune.

Ya gonna need a cam to move extra air with intake & exhaust bolt-ons with tune of course.

I put the AEM dry filter in my Ram and my wife's Charger. Snappier throttle response in the Charger was really noticeable (V6 awd) not as noticeable in the truck but I have mods in the truck.

The truck is running a HF tune, ARH long tubes, Pedal Commander, 14" Magnaflow and the AEM filter.

My wife's seat o' the pants meter noticed and appreciated the difference on her Charger though.

I have one No difference from stock.

Have one installed for a few weeks. Maybe just a lil tad more responsive. But not been up to much highway speeds. I know not gonna do a lot for performance, more air maybe improve MPG a lil. Just not gonna go out and get a complete CAI or Varaam system put on a truck that spends a lot of time outside the front door.

If I want performance, I'll go buy me a Charger/Challenger/Camaro/Stang and play, LMAO..

ADDED: My Honda Trike purty fast, but alas, my senility may show up, and I know MY REACTIONS are just not what they were in '72,. LOL

These trucks with just a few bolt ons can be made just as fast as the cars

 

[Gary's Hemi]

A drop in filter is a waste, a cai is not a waste normally HOWEVER in the ops case if he is going with a Whipple it will be as the supercharger will require a different intake.

Gotcha, but with this vehicle not looking to crank it out, just do a few mods, like get a tonneau cover on, bed rug, maybe 60" rear light strip and wire a light into bed, and call it Good.

Maybe I'll get lucky and win lottery and look for a 70's Barracuda, LOL.

Have a good 1

I ordered an AEM filter and a Flowmaster Outlaw muffler.
The filter came first so I dropped it in.
I noticed my exhaust sounded better.
Thought it might have been my imagination till my wife rode with me
and said " the new muffler sound great."
Imagine her surprise when I finally put the Outlaw on...

Hair dryer wont be for a while, and my paper air filter is due for change so i figure why not. Can onlu help.

 

[TXCOMT]

Yep, I installed the filter in question not necessarily for performance, but because I got it cheap from a fellow RF'er and I hate having to buy new paper ones! Since my intention is to own my '16 Reb for 10 years, that'll add up.
