Airaid Kit Replacement Filter - 721-478 $120.17
  • Proudly designed and manufactured in the USA using premium materials and advanced production standards.
  • Made In The USA

The Airaid 721-478 Kit Replacement Filter is a premium performance air filter engineered by Airaid to deliver high airflow and help improve horsepower and torque in your engine. Designed as a direct replacement element for compatible Airaid cold air intake systems, this DryFlow filter keeps your engine breathing cleanly without the mess of oil-based filter maintenance. Whether you're refreshing an existing Airaid intake setup or upgrading your engine's air filtration, the 721-478 is a bolt-in solution built to Airaid's exacting performance standards.

Key Features & Benefits

  • DryFlow Filtration Technology: Airaid's premium DryFlow filter media operates without oil, meaning no re-oiling between service intervals and no risk of contaminating mass airflow sensors — a common concern with oiled aftermarket filters.
  • High Air Flow Design: Engineered specifically to increase airflow to your engine, the 721-478 is designed to support improved horsepower and torque output compared to a restrictive stock paper filter.
  • Performance Replacement Fit: Built as a kit replacement element, this filter installs directly into compatible Airaid intake kits — no adapters or fabrication required, keeping your install clean and straightforward.
  • Distinctive Red Filter Construction: The signature red Airaid filter housing is easy to spot in the engine bay and signals a performance-grade component designed for enthusiasts.
  • Reusable & Washable: Unlike disposable OEM paper filters, Airaid's DryFlow construction is designed for long-term use, allowing you to clean and reinstall rather than continuously replacing.
  • Universal Application Versatility: Marketed as a universal air filter, the 721-478 suits a range of performance intake setups across multiple vehicle platforms wherever its dimensions and flange fit.

Fitment

The Airaid 721-478 is classified as a universal performance air filter, meaning fitment is determined by your intake system's flange diameter and available space rather than a vehicle-specific application list. It is designed to serve as a replacement filter element for compatible Airaid intake kits. One commonly referenced application pairing in retailer data associates this filter with setups used on the 2011–2023 Ford Mustang GT and F-150 5.0L platforms, though you should verify compatibility with your specific Airaid intake kit part number before ordering.

If you are unsure whether the 721-478 is the correct replacement element for your existing Airaid intake system, contact our fitment specialists at ThreePiece.us before purchasing — we're here to help you get the right part the first time.

Airaid Kit Replacement Filter - 721-478 FAQ

Install and care: air filters

Before you start

  • Read the maker's guide for where the airflow sensor moves to.
  • Have the clamps and hand tools the guide names within reach.

Do

  • Seat every coupler fully and tighten the clamps evenly.
  • Service the filter on the maker's interval and use the maker's cleaning kit.

Don't

  • Don't over-oil an oiled filter; it fouls the airflow sensor.
  • Don't run the engine with a coupler loose.
