Z8 aFe Performance Air Filters

Advanced Flow Engineering (aFe) makes these high performance, high flow OE air filters which replace the restrictive factory paper filter and lets your engine breathe better. These are stock replacement filters that drop in to your BMW's factory airbox system, and will increase flow to the engine, yielding more horsepower and torque.

Paper filters do a good job in keeping dirt out but can clogged easily so that it needs to be replaced frequently. aFe's performance filters are made with a washable/reusable cotton gauze which allows more airflow. aFe's filters feature a pliable progressive polyurethane seal, the deepest pleats in the industry, minimal wicking, and are factory pre-oiled with non-surfactant containing refined oil. Made in California, USA

This is a drop-in stock replacement aFe performance air filter that installs into your BMW's factory airbox. This particular filter fits the following BMWs:

E39 5 series: 1997-2003 540i
E39 M5, 2000-2003 (**requires 2 filters)
E34 5 series: 1994-1995 530i & 540i
E38 7 series: 1995-2001 740i & 740iL
X5 4.4i 2001-2006 (E53 chassis)
Z8 roadster 2000-2003 (**requires 2 filters)

This version uses aFe's highest flowing filter media, which uses a lightly oil gauze to filter out dirt and particulates, while allowing more air to flow to the intake. For the best flowing filter, with the best performance gain, we always recommend this standard aFe filter media (often called "Pro5R ", which has a blue pre-oiled filter media). We also carry this filter in the "ProDry" grey filter media, which is oil-free for only slightly less performance and no maintenance.
