AFE stock replacement filter
I am getting ready to replace my air filter. I saw that AFE has a high performance stock replacment. Any thoughts? Is it worth the $85 or so or should I just save and get a scotty 3? Further down the road, I am thinking Edge Juice, DonM injectors, clutch, fuel system upgrade, clutch, turbo. But I don't know how long before that will happen.
Thanks,
Nick

I have a AFE PG7 drop in filter in my truck with the homemade torque tube. I was pulling the restrictor guage down about 1/3 when towing our trailer with the stock filter. The guage never moves now, that tells me it is getting better flow. For me it was well worth it.

I used to run an AFE drop-in and my filterminder still got sucked way down. I never really noticed any difference except that I could clean and reuse it. I'd say just save your money and get the whole system or you'll end up losing a bunch of $$$ when you go to sell the AFE later on...

pro gaurd 7
I also have the drop in, not much difference than stock filter only I can clean it when I want which makes it a lot cheaper that buying new paper filter every 5-6000 miles. Does the BHAF flow more air than the pro guard 7?
