We started with a cutting-edge air filter in a near-empty 3200 square-foot office. At the time, Dick Cepek was looking to enter the performance filter market and was willing to take a chance on a new, start-up company, and this was the perfect opportunity to break into the market.

Soon after, we manufactured more and more private label filters for well-known performance companies and rapidly developed more vehicle applications. We naturally progressed into designing our own intake systems and sold them to the customers directly.

In 2001, we were able to progress into a larger building, and in 2007, an even larger one. Over the years, more space has enabled us to ramp up manufacturing capabilities, expanding our product line to include exhaust, intercoolers, turbos, suspension and more. 23 years later, we are still expanding, not only in size, but also in product line offerings.

This milestone is highlighted by recently acquiring a new 127,000 square foot building, only a short distance away from our Corona, CA facility. Our taste for pushing the limits kept us going- it's what innovation is all about.

Throughout the years, we've overcome obstacles, from the risks of starting a new business to the 2008 recession. Despite the pandemic and recent years that challenged us all, we persevered with optimism, teamwork, and strategy. Even with all these challenges, we have continued to grow, exceeding the capacity of our existing buildings. Acquiring this greater building enables our operations to match our growth, with the cumulation of our facilities now covering over 300,000 square feet.

 Third Expansion

If it's fun to drive- we're there. From die-hard diesel devotees, to adrenaline junkies that push the limits on the track to those that push them on or off-road, we have a diverse customer base because we have a diverse team of enthusiasts. All of us at aFe POWER take pride in advancing the driving experience.

 We thank all of our customers for your continued support and for bringing aFe POWER along for your ride.

After over a year of limited car shows and car-related events, we were eager to get together with fellow enthusiasts again. When the opportunity to hold Supra Sunday at aFe POWER came up, we raced at the chance to host it.

It’s hard to know how an event will go after such a long hiatus, but we were stoked with the interest and turnout. Setup started early Sunday morning with our fellow vendors: StudioRSR, Motorsport Hardware, and Art of Attack. Soon after the coffee and donuts hit the table, the rumble of caravans could be heard around the corner. If the coffee wasn’t waking you up, the rolling thunder produced by thousands of horsepower sure did. 

Roll-ins seemed to happen one after the other and it wasn’t long before our lot was filled with enthusiasts and amazing cars. There were Supras of all generations and in all different styles; widebodies, track cars, 10-second cars, aired-out stance cars, sleepers, and even clean stock examples. No matter your preference, there was something for everyone.

With everyone gathered around, it was time for the raffle – because who doesn’t like free stuff, right? Lots of enthusiasts walked away with some great prizes from aFe POWER and our fellow vendors. We’d like to say thank you to the vendors for coming out and contributing awesome prizes and congratulations to all the winners.

Also, a huge thank you to everyone who attended, and we hope to see you at one of our many exciting events we have planned soon! Be sure to follow us at @aFePOWER to get info on all upcoming events.

 Office Staff Joins Our Shipping Team to Get Orders Out

aFe POWER's ability to create new products and new product categories has really been keeping the Shipping Department extremely busy. 

Getting customer orders out as fast as possible is our top priority, so even the VPs and office staff are willing to jump in and help keep things moving swiftly. 

For the past 2 weekends, we've brought in extra team members to add extra shipping days to get these products out the door and delivered to customers. 

Since this March, car shows and related events for the most part, have vanished due to recent CDC health concerns. 

We missed hanging out with our fellow car enthusiasts so we here at aFe Power held our first ever Virtual Car Show via Instagram. To enter, you needed to follow @afepower on IG, fill out our online form and submit pics of your ride.

First place prize was a $250 gift certificate towards any aFe product purchase. We appreciate all the submissions which were a wide genre of cars, trucks and jeeps.  

Thank you for all who submitted and participated. Hope to see you soon at future events - Follow @aFePOWER.  Stay healthy, be safe.
