Description: Ea Air Induction Filters (EaAU)

AMSOIL now offers universal air induction filters (EaAU) designed to replace stock oil wetted gauze or foam conical filters that were supplied with custom induction systems produced by K&N, Injen, S&B, Green, AIRAID, AFE, TrueFlow and more. AMSOIL Ea Air Induction Filters offer better efficiency, excellent airflow and are cleanable.

More Cold Air = More Horsepower
The basic purpose of the air intake system is to bring cool air from outside the engine compartment into the engine. The cooler air is denser than the air found within the hot engine compartment. The denser charge contains more oxygen than warmer air, providing better combustion through a more effective air/fuel mixture.

Another advantage of most specialty-equipment cold air intakes is their consistent diameters and the absence of sharp bends, both of which help to eliminate turbulence in the air stream.

Large and Growing Market
According to research done by the Specialty Equipment Market Association (SEMA), a new air intake system is among the first modifications a consumer makes to his or her vehicle. Since changing the air filter alone cannot eliminate air restriction built into the vehicle at the factory, replacing the factory air flow assembly includes replacing the filter, air box and air path. SEMA reports sales of air intakes are over 300,000 every year.

While intake kits were initially sold only for performance-type applications, they are now also being marketed and used as a way to boost fuel economy in SUVs, minivans, trucks and more.

AMSOIL EaAU
AMSOIL Ea Air Induction Filters fit most of the popular intake systems available. They provide improved cold air intake and a level of engine protection only an Ea Filter can provide. AMSOIL is currently offering nine Ea Air Induction Filters with varying lengths and widths. These filters have flange IDs of 3", 3.5", 4", 4.125”, 4.5” and 6". Since these filters offer a universal fit, AMSOIL provides the dimension sheet below that customers can use to determine the proper filter for their applications.

Cleanable
AMSOIL Ea Air Induction Filters are cleanable and long lasting. AMSOIL recommends cleaning the Ea Air Induction Filter when designated by the restriction gauge if the vehicle is so equipped, or according to operating conditions. If it is used in extremely dusty environments or in a performance vehicle, more frequent cleanings may be required.

Unique Design
To increase filter surface area and the volume of air entering the engine, the top of the Ea Air Induction Filter is cut away. The media is inserted in a conical form pointing toward the direction of airflow.

Quality Construction
AMSOIL Ea Air Induction Filters are made from the same high-quality nanofiber media found in other AMSOIL Ea Air Filters. The nanofiber media is pleated with epoxy-coated wire on the face and back of the media for additional strength and stiffness. High quality, pliable urethane connectors with plastisol potting complete the product. Each Ea Air Induction Filter comes with a clamp for convenient installation.

Pros: Superb quality, no oiling!
Cons: NONE

I love my Volant air intake setup. I used it on my old SOHC equipped Sport. I modded it to use on my V8 equipped Eddie Bauer. The filter that came with the kit was fine. It's every bit as good as K&N (if not better). I find that K&N filters are too oily out of the box. I've also used "Green". Of all the oiled filters, they're the best. Higher quality cotton and not a lot of oil out of the box.

Common theme here is "oil". You have to clean these filters now and again and then re-oil. It is VERY easy to over-oil which can cause grief.

Enter Amsoil. They used the technology they developed for their conventional air filters and applied to the every popular "air induction" products that so many of us use. Once I caught wind of them, I contacted my Amsoil rep and asked him what he thought. He had recently been at an Amsoil seminar on these products and they're very bullish on them. I quickly ordered one and it got to me a few days later. It was actually CHEAPER than a K&N filter I had scored and much cheaper than the Green I had acquired not long before.

The Amsoil offering is very high quality. It even looks cool. The photo I used in this review was taken by me just before I installed it. Shiny trim ring and purty blue. I've cleaned it once and the cleaning instructions are dead simple. Pull out a Shop Vac and clean it. That's it.

Amsoil products are of great quality and this filter meets their high standards. I am extremely happy with this purchase.
