Best filter per dollar
This is only slightly more expensive than a paper filter and yet it will last an indefinite amount of time longer, fits like a glove, definitely flows better(improves MPG), and you don’t have to oil it up like more expensive filters. If you own basically any GMT800 truck with a gas engine and you are at all on the fence, let this review assure you, this is the best filter you can buy per dollar for your stock air box.

Fantastic Filter and easy to install on 2014 Silverado
Installed this filter on my 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 5.3l. I was due for an air filter change anyway and figured I would go with a high flow one since I have had some exhaust work done. I wouldn't see the exhaust sound has changed or that I gained really any mileage, or any crazy claim like that. However, I feel like throttle response is just a hair better. I think this coupled with the exhaust work has allowed the truck to breath FAR better. If you aren't looking at this filter for gains (which you really shouldn't be if you are doing JUST the filter), then look into it for the purpose of it lasting a LONG time and being easy to maintain. Note: If you live in the desert or extremely dusty areas, these high flow filters may not be the best for you.

Great quality filter
Bought this for a friend's vehicle and have used it in my own vehicle. Great quality. I'm sure there are some gains as far as power, but most likely bit enough to really notice. Still a great choice. No oiling, long filter cleaning intervals, and no more buying and throwing away paper filters. It's a win win.

AEM... great stuff.
AEM is a respectable company that produces great automotive aftermarket products. I've had their products in cars I owned in the past. I decided to go with them again with a DryFlow Intake Filter. Immediately my '02 Chevy Tahoe felt more responsive at the throttle. I barely press the go pedal and it responds very well. What's best I have seen an improvement in the truck's MPG. I haven't done the calculations as of yet. But, I have seen a big difference. Don't hesitate on buying an AEM Dryflow Intake Filter.

Filter okay, shipping terrible
Filter seems good quality and had no issue installing it. Seems like I may have gain a little throttle response. Time will tell. However the condition the box came in was absolutely ridiculous. I'm surprise the filter was still in it! Should have been packaged in a cardboard box.

Noticeable improvement with the 6.2l V8
I have a 2009 GMC Sierra Denali Truck with the awesome 6.2l V8. It's got less than 32k miles on it, and isn't due for a new air filter. But it is still stock, so I decided to swap it out anyways. I also wanted a non-oiled filter, as I've had them in the past, and really don't like them. They're known for getting oil on the MAF, which just causes issues, and adds more work. And as expected, it really wasn't all that dirty. However, I'm glad I did. I immediately noticed improved throttle response and an ever so slight perceived performance improvement. I'm pretty sensitive to how the truck performs and responds. I'm kind of OCD like that. Now I'm not saying we gained a large or even measurable amount of wheeled horsepower. But the engine certainly feels and sounds better. Otherwise no change in noise and not much else to report. It's just an air-filter, not a blower. :) And if the truck is happy, I'm happy. Definite recommend for OE replacement air filter.

Best drop in filter
Easy to install fast shipping love the air filter definitely improves throttle and torque and mpg and it also is a dry filter which is a plus for vehicles that use sensitive sensors i highly recommend this filter

Really Great Product.
I installed this into my existing Air Box which is connected to an AIRAID cold air intake arm that takes place of the OEM Arm with the extra filters that rob you of air flow. Once the AEM Dry Filter went in MAN you feel the difference right away. I also recently Sport tuned my truck using the Diablo Sport tuner (Sold by Amazon) it married well. before I Swapped out the Arm and filter I was not getting the right fuel economy, it was running a little hard. once they went in though the car runs smoother and quieter. the gas mileage has improved and I'm extremely Happy. I will be making another purchase to have one ready for the swap. Regards, Dean S.

instead of going with a whole intake system, i choose this. I'm not drag racing everywhere. Just wanted a good filter that flows better. Came in a damaged box, but the product was still in the plastic wrapping and was not damaged. Installed it but on my 2018 Silverado 5.3 had some trouble getting the bottom right bolt out closest to the radiator. But a bunch or extensions and swivels made do. One thing i did notice is the AFM kicks in more often now. Kind of strange but that the only difference I see so far and its been about 2 weeks since installation. I do have a Flowmaster american thunder kit installed as well. So ill update the review in a few months to let you know is its all good.

At this point, I've only put about 1500 kms on it probably so it's hard to comment on long term value and reliability. Didn't notice any improvement in fuel mileage but honestly, I wasn't expecting any. The 5.3L in my 2018 Silverado seems to breathe a bit better, acceleration feels a bit better. Can't say I notice any different in "sound" though - again, didn't expect any though. The filter feels really good though, very solid build. I did notice that the material within the meshing doesn't quite to the edges all the way around though. Perhaps this is part of the design or just missed in quality control. It's not enough of a gap for me to be concerned about particulates getting into my intake. Perfect fit for my 5.3L, fits very snug into the factory air box.
