Performance Air Filter

The aFe Power Pro 5R Air Filter stands at 7 inches tall and features a 360-degree radial flow design. Constructed with five layers of progressively finer cotton gauze media, this filter maximizes airflow to your engine. This high-flow filter is engineered to provide significant power gains, making it suitable for both street and track applications.

The intake system incorporates a top-mounted heat shield made from 18-gauge steel, also featuring a wrinkle-black powder coat. This design mounts securely to the lower half of the factory airbox, ensuring a straightforward installation using existing factory mounting points.

Installation and Hardware

Premium hardware and clamps are included to ensure a secure fit for both the high-flow air filter and the intake tube. The installation process is straightforward, requiring no cutting or drilling on OEM parts, which allows for quicker setup.
