So how's everyone liking the AEM Dryflow on the PRL HVI? I'm looking to pick one of these up as I've read that the AEM Dryflow filters have a filtration efficiency of 99% or higher.
Good! No problems experienced with AEM’s dry flow filter up until I upgraded air intakes haha. Just make sure you get the right size.

I've had the AEM filter on for about two months now and its been fine. From holding both the PRL and AEM filters up to the light, the AEM definitely seems like it would filter better since it's a lot less transparent.

Definitely! I had an AEM filter on my last car and it returned lower silicon and wear metals than the OEM filter on a Blackstone oil analysis. I'm happy to hear the AEM works well with the PRL intake. Is the sound the same?

I'm not sure since I installed the AEM filter with the intake. Seems loud enough for me. That's good to hear that they do filter better, since that was the main reason I went with it.

I just installed mine today. I noticed the filter isn't really snug on the MAF housing. I had to tighten the clamp a lot before it would stay.

Is yours like this? I'm a bit concerned the filter isn't sealing on the housing. It looks and feels like it is, but I'm not positive. Other than that, it sounds awesome!

Yeah, it went on a bit loose but fit snug once the clamp was tightened. It seems to seal fine and I haven't had any issues with it.

In case you're curious, I just took mine apart to check after driving over 400 miles on a road trip through the Southwest desert. Upon removing the filter, the inside of the MAF housing was spotless. As well as the couplers and the rest of the intake tract. It seems that the AEM filter is sealing nicely on the housing and looks to be filtering great so far. Even in dusty and windy conditions.
