I threw my AFE in the trash. Be aware that you must clean it ALL THE TIME. I'm in a dusty environment and I tap out my stock filter DAILY. Even then, you will want to clean your MAP sensor at the same time you clean your filter. The filter stops the big chunks but not the finer particles. You AFE owners will know what I'm saying when you take a clean paper towel and wipe down the inside of the intake tube.
For those thinking about upping HP on a heavy hauler or work truck, I feel this $240 product is a bad match for a $7k warrantied motor. Bummer.
Here's the deal on AFE. The AFE intake air flow is much different than the engineered stock intake. This effects the readings on the map sensor that will allow the egr's to get hotter, allowing the cat to exceed the operating temp range and that will cause the motor to stop running until the temps drop to allow the breaker to reset. Been there.
