Do you hate cleaning? Do you have to spend extended periods of time just to psych up to get motivated to start? Yeah, well who doesn't? The cleaner-haters club has a huge following, so anything that makes cleaning easier, faster, more effective and less agonizing, we embrace with open arms and rubber gloves. There are of course cleaning priorities, organizing the tools in your garage comes before washing the dog, and cleaning your vehicle's reusable AEM Dryflow air filter should realistically trump both of those. Why you may ask? Because a dirty pooch or a greasy socket-set won't directly influence your bottom-line the way a grubby, airflow choking, air filter will.

If you're driving around with a really dirty air filter the overall performance of your vehicle can suffer. Not making your bed regularly is tolerable; not cleaning your air filter is unforgiveable, especially when AEM Dryflow Synthetic Air Filter Cleaner, part number 1-1000, takes most of the chore out of the procedure.

Instead of viewing it as cleaning, think of it as giving your vehicle the breath of life. AEM's spray on air filter cleaner is simply the gift that keeps on giving every time you use it. The cleaning instructions make the process easy. Begin by gently taping out the loose dirt and bugs from your filter. Next spray the AEM air filter cleaner liberally on the inside and outside of the filter, concentrating on the dirty side of the filter. Wait for 10 minutes and rinse with cool or warm water then let the filter dry naturally, or carefully use compressed air to speed things up. AEM Dryflow® Synthetic Air Filter Cleaner loosens and dissolves dirt so easily and efficiently it's downright entertaining to watch.

AEM Dryflow® Synthetic Air Filter Cleaner is specifically formulated for AEM Dryflow air filters and other synthetic air filters. Keep in mind AEM Dryflow air filters conveniently do not require oil.

From Oct 30th through November 2nd, the Las Vegas Convention Center will be transformed into the 2012 Specialty Equipment Market Association's (SEMA) annual trade show. Bringing in hundreds of vendors, racers, and manufacturers showcasing the newest and hottest products, modified and stock vehicles makes this event one of the largest automotive gatherings in the world. SEMA has brought this collection of the industry's best together since the first show in 1963. Since then, the market has seen many changes and a rapid growth of different technology making vehicles faster, smarter and more powerful while balancing safety and efficiencies.

AEM Induction Systems is one such company dedicated to technological innovation in the design and engineering of performance air filter and air intake products. AEM will be attending the SEMA show at booth number 23053 showcasing newly released cold air, short ram and electronically tuned intake systems for popular years, makes and models. Best of all AEM is scheduled to unveil a custom built 2013 Scion FR-S in the booth. "We are going to show the FR-S and the complete product package AEM is designing for this vehicle." reported AEM Brand Manager George Hsieh. "The FR-S will include the high performance Electronically Tuned Intake (ETI), AEM exhaust and AEM strut bar." Mr. Hsieh went on to mention that the FR-S would also include a selection of performance parts from other aftermarket manufacturers.

"The main thing to remember when it comes to intakes is that heat is the enemy. AEM's focus is above and beyond engineering and the design of the ETI system on the FR-S incorporates that idea with a custom air box that uses a large fresh air duct and places the filter and sensor components inside, away from the hottest parts of the engine. By creating a better cold air effect you can boost overall engine performance." Other AEM ETI systems on display at the booth will include special features, like the design for the 2006-2010 Mini Cooper S which actually converts the decorative hood scoop into a functioning ram air scoop for the intake. AEM will also be displaying performance air filters for multiple vehicles from their new OE replacement line.

When asked about AEM's presence at the 2012 SEMA show, Hsieh stated that AEM is concentrating on building the brand and the AEM "family" by building better connections with dealers and customers. "We want to show everyone that AEM is a value added brand as well as our capabilities as an engineering company and the breadth of what we can accomplish using new technology and social media marketing tactics." Needless to say, booth 23053 is definitely a stop to make this year at the SEMA show.

AEM will be showing their new products and the Scion FR-S at booth 23053 in the racing and performance central hall of the Las Vegas Convention Center. So save the dates and make your way to the SEMA Show October 30th through November 2nd to see all that AEM has to offer for you.

With the comeback of the American muscle car, one of the most prominent and popular rides on the streets today, is the Dodge Charger R/T. Boasting considerable power, few know the true potential of this modern American legend better than custom car owner Lance Doss. Hailing from Orange, California, Doss has designed a truly custom look both inside and out for his 2006 Charger R/T.

AEM caught up with Lance to go over the specs of his ’06 Charger as well as find out more about his life as a custom car owner and modifier.

AEM: "What inspired you to have a passion for modifying cars and trucks?"

Doss: "My parents were into cars when I was a kid. When I was a teenager I got into music and DJing for friends. When the time came for me to get a driver’s license I jumped at the chance. I got my license and it was time for a car. Times were a little challenging, so I had to save to get my first car. Once I saved the money for a down payment I went for my first car. It was a mini truck, because that was what was in at the time. I had to get a stereo system of course. Then I came into contact with a guy named Randy Riggs. He was already into modifying his mini truck and it was very cool. I was hooked from the start. The mods keep coming and the more I did, the more I wanted. I think that car modifying is my stress relief."

AEM: "What drew you to this specific model? Why the Charger?"

Doss: "I loved the lines and the way the car handled. There were several versions, and I looked at them all… I got an R/T because it was a HEMI. I wanted the power."

Any real driver knows that when it comes to hauling heavy payloads you need reliable performance and a lot of it. The 2011 to 2012 GMC Sierra and Chevy Silverado 2500 and 3500 HD 6.6 liter diesel motors are an excellent choice for a truck that requires a little something extra to get the job done. The 6.6 liter Duramax diesel engine offers drivers an additional boost in power and torque over the standard fuel injected 6.0 liter gasoline engine. Even though these trucks are excellent examples of raw towing and hauling capability, AEM has developed a performance air intake system that delivers more horsepower and torque to the wheels.

Air Intake for 2011-2012 Chevy/GMC 2500HD and 3500HD Duramax


Since the 2011-2012 Chevy/GMC 2500HD and 3500HD Duramax are popular diesel trucks, the AEM Research & Development team focused on improving the already well designed stock intake to maintain intake air temperatures near ambient, reduce air restriction, and maximize low-end torque for towing. The 21-9032DS air intake system will not void your GMC or Chevrolet warranty and it is backed with AEM's Lifetime Limited Warranty.

When dyno tested, the 21-9032DS showed an estimated performance gain of 14HP @ 2100RPM and 30ft-lbs of torque @ 2100RPM. Much of this impressive improvement over the stock intake system is due to the custom design and special features included with the 21-9032DS intake. The 21-9032DS includes an oversized AEM Dryflow® synthetic washable air filter (part number 21-2288DK) for outstanding air flow, filtration, and performance while allowing easy oil-free cleaning. AEM's 21-9032DS air intake system is easy to install and can go up to 100,000 miles before servicing, depending on driving conditions. This Brute Force HD air intake also sports a custom designed intake tube and enclosed air box. As an additional feature, the AEM air box includes a filter minder gauge that reads the restriction level of the air filter notifying you when the filter is ready to be cleaned.

The 21-9032DS Brute Force air intake system is easy to install and fits the following GMC and Chevy vehicles:

2012 GMC Sierra 3500 HD 6.6L V8 Diesel
2012 GMC Sierra 2500 HD 6.6L V8 Diesel
2012 Chevrolet Silverado 3500 HD 6.6L V8 Diesel
