The AEM 21-8033DC Brute Force Air Intake System produces horsepower and torque gains by replacing the vehicle's restrictive factory air filter and air intake housing. This air intake system was designed, tuned and dyno-tested to fit specific vehicle models. Air enters the system through an extra-large AEM Dryflow synthetic washable air filter for outstanding air flow, filtration and performance. The air filter is located in the original air box space and is protected by a replacement air box with an AEM logo embossed lid which is designed to reduce intake air temperature and increase horsepower. The aerodynamically engineered intake tubing is constructed from high density polyethylene. This air intake system was developed to accommodate the engine's factory emissions control devices including the mass air flow sensor as well as two replacement crankcase vent hoses. The cone shaped AEM Dryflow air filter is made from an oil-free, synthetic filter media that can be used for up to 100,000 miles before cleaning is needed (depending on driving conditions). The air intake system is easy to install with commonly available tools and it is backed by AEM's Lifetime Limited Warranty. Some AEM air intakes are not legal for sale or use in California and other states adopting California emission standards while others are 50 state legal.
