paper filter,
the PRO 5 Media provides you with 5 layers of excellent air flow
and
filtration characteristics in a reusable package. This filter is
for the every day consumer who is not taking their vehicle off-road a
lot or live in very dusty, sandy areas. If your seeking better
performance
in HorsePower,
Fuel Economy, and overall Engine Quality----this is where you start.

If you want maximum performance,
then get an aFe Stage 2 intake
system. No other intake gives you the same amount of torque and power
for your money. aFe designed the top-of-the-line Magnum FORCE Stage 2
cold air intake for the demanding auto enthusiast. Whether it is
an spark-ignition gas or a compression-ignition diesel, the more air
the engine receives, the more power it generates. For powered enhanced
vehicles, with turbocharger, NOS, propane or a
performance module; without more air, you are not getting maximum
power. The Magnum FORCE Stage 2 systems provide all the air you need.
Unlike
other aftermarket air intake systems, the Magnum FORCE Stage 2 intake
system replaces the entire stock air induction system to the throttle
body or turbo housing. Remembering aFe's motto Stock Sucks, they
eliminated the stock air box, the stock air filter and the stock intake
tract. The only thing retained is the stock electronics, to ensure that
their Stage 2 system works with the stock electronics.
Cold air equals more power, aFe systems
maximize your vehicle's
performance with the largest air box for each vehicle
application. Even though aFe made it as large as possible they were
careful to use your vehicle's stock mounting points. There is no need
to cut or drill anything when you install an aFe intake kit. Another
advantage of such a big air box is that aFe can design in the largest
air filter possible.
At first glance you probably wont
notice the
unique features in each aFe air box design. Each of them is there for a
purpose, either to make your job of installing the system easier or to
improve the performance of your vehicle. Here are some benefits that
distinguish aFe's Magnum FORCE Stage 2 intake systems:
- 16-gauge powder-coated steel Durable,
OE look finish
- Trim sealed or covered Seals out hot
engine air
- Secured PEM-nuts Easier installation
- Welded and preassembled sheet metal
Faster Installation
- Pre-positioned opening for Stock
attachments
- No dangling wires, relocating hoses or
tubes.
- 3-angle velocity stack adaptor on some
applications
- Powder-coated covers on some
applications
As
you can see, aFe put a lot of effort into designing each air box to fit
each vehicle. It takes a little more time and effort but aFe did it to
make the job of installing our systems easier.
Finally, aFe
installs one of their custom designed and built filters that is custom
tailored for each box, maximizing the amount of surface area for
decreases air resistance. By designing the largest filter for the
largest air box, aFe is able insure that the vehicle is getting the
maximum amount of air regardless of the performance upgrades. aFe's
Magnum FORCE Stage 2 intake system uses their conical universal
clamp-on filters for ease of cleaning.
Typical design characteristics of aFe's
custom designed air filter elements:
- 100% poly urethane construction Durable, resistant to high
temperature and chemicals
- Deep pleats Greater flow and dust holding capacity
- Rounded pleat geometry Better airflow characteristics
- Full or modified velocity stack Better airflow characteristics
- Washable/reusable filter media Longer service life.
Letting
more air in through the filter and keeping the hot air out doesnt help
much if you cant get the air to the motor smoothly and efficiently. aFe
intake
systems use heat blocking molded tubes because you just cant bend a
steel or aluminum tube to accommodate the modern engine compartment.
With a molded tube, you can remove kinks, sharp bends and obstructions
that restrict airflow. By tapering the tube, you can accelerate the
airflow for more torque and better throttle response
