Product Description

The aFe 30-10181 MagnumFLOW Pro 5R air filter is a high-performance OE replacement designed to increase airflow while maintaining excellent filtration efficiency. Built with five layers of progressively finer cotton gauze media, this filter delivers improved horsepower and throttle response by allowing more air into the engine compared to restrictive factory paper filters. Its advanced construction ensures a balance between maximum airflow and engine protection, making it ideal for daily driving and performance applications.

This drop-in panel filter fits directly into the factory airbox with no modifications required, making installation quick and hassle-free. The washable and reusable design significantly reduces long-term maintenance costs, while the durable polyurethane frame and integrated bump seal ensure a secure, leak-free fit over time. Whether you're upgrading for performance or replacing a worn-out OEM filter, the Pro 5R delivers consistent results across a wide range of Audi turbocharged applications.
