Pro Dry AFE Filters are amazing. I installed one in my 2008 Trail Blazer SS instead of the K&N. I was very skeptical about its performance over the K&N, since the K&N has always been my go to filter. The AFE Filters performs great; it really wakes up the LS2 6.0. Best part about them is the cleaning. I installed it about 20,000 miles ago so I thought it would be good time to clean it. All you have to do is take out the filter and squirt the filter from the inside out with a water hose and let air dry. I know they say do it at least every 50,000 but that thing was filthy after 20,000. You can get it 100% clean, and since it is so easy to do I plan on doing it every 10,000 (After seeing how dirty it was at 20,000 miles).

I am really thinking about installing this Takeda intake on my 370z, my only concern is heat. We already know this engine gets hot. I hit 240 F oil temps daily now that it is mid July in Texas (Outside temps 101F), not sure what the temp is in the engine bay where these puppies would be installed.

Also how long does it take to install. I am contemplating putting the stock unit back in for oil changes and warranty work. I don’t want to void my warranty, the wife made me get the extended 5yr 100,000 mile.
