I need to replace the air filters on my 2007 Honda Civic LX. Are AFE replacement filters a good option?

 

i have not used this type, but most performance filters are good. the makers do test them before selling them on the market.

 

filters made from cotton gauze that requires the use of oil aren't really the best to use. they are a pain in the *** to clean and oil can gunk up sensors. stick with a synthetic dry flow filter like AEM or K&N hybrid which is a re-branded AEM dryflow. AEM is also a lifetime filter unlike cotton which needs replacement.

 

hi there i just got me a new civic 2016 turbo. any mods yet. I will like to replace the blow off valve or any simple mod to upgrade power. thank you for looking

 

I agree ,the cotton based oiled units are a bad choice,go with the dry flow high out put filters ,I have used them for years on every thing I own,I plan to do a cold air unit on my 16 Accord sport soon.

 

fastlane, AFE filter is a great option. This filter outflowed the factory filter by 31%. If you're not sure which one to choose, here is a comparison of all aFe filters for you: aFe - Comparison

 

Ooooh, well...Guess I wish I'd seen this before installing a perm. K&N clean and oil-type filter in my CRV.. I was going to rave about the increased 2 MPG on a trip I just finished (average) MI to NC round trip, but now I'm concerned that long-term, I may pay.

 

Get the un-oiled version , less hassle,it's a pain to clean the oiled version.

 

Is that by K&N? I only saw one choice on their site.

 

There are several companies that offer cold air filters including AFE
