Though open element air filter systems are effective for increasing airflow they have a few big flaws. First of all, open element air filters tend to make lots of noise, (this of course is not a drawback to those who think louder is better). Second, the production air boxes are constructed and located in such a way to protect your engine from debris. Open element filter systems expose your filter and your engine to dirt and moisture, the same dirt and moisture the factory air box is designed to protect against. Finally, most cotton gauze open element filters suck in more dirt and heated air from the engine compartment than the factory system. Some hot air open element intake systems actually reduce power output as the engine compartment heats up and robs your engine from the oxygen it needs for effective combustion. The True Flow system uses cool outside air to increase performance and the power increase is proven by dyno testing each system. When True Flow designs a system they make sure it produces more power. If it doesnt make more power they dont sell it!

True Flow air intake systems are a unique departure from traditional air intake systems. The factory air box is left intact keeping the airflow cooler while protecting the filter from debris and moisture. The factory filter is replaced with one of True Flows high-flow foam filters. All True Flow filters have a LIFETIME WARRANTY! True Flue also eliminates the factory air tube which can have restrictive mufflers or resonators (power robbers) and replace them with their high flow powder coated mandrel bent tubes and reinforced silicone couplers to maximize velocity (power adders).

True Flow kits are easy to install and maintain. Each kit contains the necessary hardware required to install, (like custom fiberglass reinforced silicone couplers and stainless steel worm clamps). By using your factory air intake components combined with True Flow’s low restriction lifetime filters, free flow air tubes and silicone couplers, you maximize the performance potential of your cold air intake system without altering any factory sensors or components. This means True Flow kits are also dealer friendly because the factory warranty is not an issue because all factory sensors and hookups are retained with this kit! Now, with a simple, no modification installation, you’ll be cruising in no time.

This is for those of you wondering why a foam filter is better than a cotton gauze filter. For years off-road racers have had to install pre-filters on their open element cotton gauze filters. This is because the cotton gauze filters dont do a good enough job of filtering out fine dirt and they have a tendency to clog up quickly and choke the engine of its supply of air. These pre-filters (like K&N sells for use with their own filters) is actually made up of foam! True Flow did their homework and realized a foam air filters can filter out more dirt, flow more air, and still be strong enough to offer a lifetime warranty! True Flow filters are more than 12 times thicker than the competitor’s gauze or paper filters, giving foam filters superior filtration and overall airflow. Foam filters are constructed of tiny interlocking cells that distribute and trap dirt particles throughout the entire volume of the foam. This design creates superior dirt-holding capacity and higher particle filtration than gauze filters, which can only stop airborne dirt particles on the filter surface. As your True Flow foam filter gets dirtier, it actually flows more air than a gauze filter – giving you improved performance and more horsepower. These foam filters do require a special oil and at no time should a K&N type oil be used on True Flow foam filters.
