Having a clean air filter can increase your gas mileage, reduce emissions, and improve engine performance. This makes it one of the most valuable maintenance items to stay on top of. While you can replace your air filter with a standard factory-replacement, many people opt to upgrade to a performance air filter.

There are a host of engine mods out there, but replacing your stock air filter with a new one is a relatively inexpensive upgrade that can lead to greater efficiency under the hood. Many aftermarket 2019 Mustang air filters are manufactured using three layers of progressive synthetic media material. The material is oil-free and designed specifically to trap any small particulates and help increase the overall airflow to your pony's engine.

One of the major benefits to performance air filters is that they're usually reusable. That means instead of buying a new air filter for your next change, you can just clean it instead. Cleaning an air filter is one of the more deeply satisfying things you can do, and you'll immediately see the value as you wash away all of the junk and debris that didn't end up in your engine.

Don't forget to also change out your cabin air filter. This filter makes sure you'll have better-smelling air in your Mustang, but more importantly, it filters out mold spores before they have a chance to take root in your Mustang's upholstery. You'll also filter out pollen and other allergens. Hard to drive your best when you're in the middle of a sneezing fit!
