Universal High-Flow Air Filter
Give your engine the airflow it deserves with this reusable, high-performance air filter—perfect as a direct replacement for an ECS intake system or as the finishing touch for your custom intake project.
Dimensions: 4.5" Base OD • 6" Filter Height • 3.5" Top OD
Upgrade from your restrictive factory filter to an ECS Tuning High-Flow Dry Air Filter and let your engine breathe freely. Improved intake flow enhances power throughout the rev range while helping maintain efficient fuel economy.
Oiled vs. Dry Filters — Which Is Right for You?
Oiled Filters
Offer slightly higher airflow for maximum performance
Require more frequent cleaning
Must be re-oiled after each cleaning
Long-term reusable design saves money over disposable paper filters
Dry Filters
Provide excellent airflow with minimal maintenance
Easily cleaned with warm, soapy water—no oiling required
Still flow significantly better than OE paper filters
Fully reusable and cost-effective
Both versions deliver superior performance over stock filters while offering the long-term benefit of reusability. Choose the option that best fits your maintenance style and performance goals.
This version uses aFe's highest flowing filter media, which uses a lightly oiled 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.
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:
E30 3 series: 318i, 318is 318i Convertible 1990-1991
E30 3 series: 325e, 325es 1986-1988
E30 3 series: 325i, 325is 325ic, 325ix 1987-1991
E28 5 Series: 528e 1986-1988
E34 5 Series: 525i 1989-1990
E32 7 Series: 750il 1988-1994 (requires 2 of these filters).
