Who is Airaid?

Airaid is an aftermarket company that manufactures air filters and air intake systems for various vehicles. Founded in 1997, their filters are designed to work in any kind of environment, may it be the sand dunes, mud bogs, snowy slopes, and other harsh terrains. 

Their filters are not just used for offroading purposes but at the race track as well. You can see it being used by various drag cars and track cars too. Over the years, Airaid has established itself as a company that provides top quality products and has since become a leader in its market segment.

Engines Need to Breathe Too

Like humans, your car engine needs to properly breathe as well. Imagine running with your nose clogged. Hard isn’t it? That goes the same for your engine.
