Here
at PerformanceDoctors.com and Advanced Performance, we have chosen
to carry only one brand of automotive air filters. We have found
that AFE Filters are not only of higher quality, but have many
other features not found in other filter manufactures. AFE Filters
are washable, reusable high performance air filters. They are
designed to Increase horsepower and acceleration, and will not
void you US vehicle warranty, and have emission standards which
are legal in all 50 US States. Both AFE & N&N Filters
have a outstanding 10 Year / Million Mile Limited Warranty.
We believe
the primary function of an air filter is to deliver both high
airflow and superior dirt protection. These air filters provide
minimum restriction allowing high airflow into an engine. In the
vast majority of cases increased airflow will increase engine
performance measured by horsepower and throttle response (torque).
The performance benefits of maximum airflow are clear, compelling
and well documented. That is why so many professional racers are
willing to run expensive vehicles with no air filter, as opposed
to installing a disposable air filter. They are seeking the additional
horsepower and throttle response needed to win the race. These
air filters are designed to provide superior filtration of the
contaminants that can harm your engine while maximizing the airflow
characteristics of the filter in question. Because no two air
filters are alike, the specific airflow and overall filtration
efficiency will vary depending on the filter in question. However,
you can rest assured that each air filter we sell, has been designed
to achieve high air flow while providing superior filtration.
Both air flow and dirt protection are critical to engine performance.
For this reason a consumer should always evaluate an air filter
based on both its filtration efficiency and air flow capabilities.
Air flow
is so important because at its most basic level, an engine is
an air pump. More air entering the engine increases the efficiency
of the combustion process creating more horsepower and torque.
Horsepower is a measure of the engine's maximum power while torque
measures how quickly you can accelerate. They are designed to
increase engine performance in both horsepower and throttle response
by reducing air flow restriction. Maintaining optimal, unrestricted
air flow becomes a problem when it must pass through a filtering
medium. The level of air resistance varies depending on the size,
surface area and physical attributes of the filtering medium.
This cotton air filter design flows substantially more air throughout
the filter's life while maintaining filtration levels critical
to ensure long engine life. On average, a square inch of our filter
medium will flow at least 50% more air than a square inch of paper
or synthetic filter media.
