AEM’s engineers focus on tuning the resonance properties of the Brute Force intake and utilize an aluminum inlet pipe to help carry more air to the intake valves. The AEM Brute Force Dryflow synthetic air filter is located so that the filter draws air from a safe and cool location. And, AEM’s Dryflow air filter doesn’t use oil to trap dirt so it takes the guesswork out of cleaning and servicing your filter.

Most AEM Brute Force Intakes have received their CARB Exemption, meaning they are street legal for use in all 50 U.S. states.
