Replacement air filters
Sport air filter - Modify the intake system
High-capacity sports filter - one of the basic elements of mechanical tuning of any engine. Sport filters often replace serial filter inserts, being the first step of modification, mainly due to the ease of installation, visible gains, and all this at a relatively low price of modification.
What are the benefits of a sports air filter installed in a car?
A high-quality conical air filter increases the efficiency of the intake system and significantly improves the flow of air, which is essential for proper fuel combustion in the engine. Due to the supply of additional oxygen, we can initiate the combustion of a larger dose of fuel in the combustion chamber, which will generate additional energy, thereby causing an increase in engine power and torque. Improved performance and an increase of several horses are not the only benefits, for the drive unit to work properly we must ensure that the correct AFR in the full range of revolutions, which is extremely difficult in tuned cars equipped with low-spending factory inserts. An overly rich, oxygen-poor mixture results in decreased performance, increased fuel consumption, and the formation of toxic compounds in the sleep process.
Aside from providing more oxygen to the engine, can we count on other benefits? The driver of a car equipped with a sports intake system can count, for example, on additional acoustic effects, because standard filters are designed to maximize the sound of air intake under the hood, it is quite different in the case of their sports counterparts, which generate all sorts of acoustic flavors, straight from the WRC, thanks to their greater capacity.
Which car filter to use? Insert or cone?
Deciding to install an insert, the modification is very simple and no different from periodic filter replacement service, such a solution has a limited effect of flow improvement benefits. Stock air box is often very restrictive, so this type of modification is especially recommended for cars after light tuning or the softe itself. If you raise the power to a significant degree, it is worth using an accessory dedicated intake systems or universal conical air filters, which guarantee the highest performance.
The large selection of manufacturers makes the purchase of a sports filter a challenge for the layman. As FMIC we bet on quality and proven goods, that's why you'll buy Proram, Ramair, and FMIC PRO products from us.

Only periodic care and attention to cleanliness guarantees proper operation and allows you to enjoy long and safe use.
Proram products are a category of popular filters made of synthetic nano-fibers with a great reputation in the tuning world. In order to maximize the filtering surface area, nano-fibers are additionally corrugated, such a solution guarantees incredible performance at a very compact size.
If you are looking for premium quality at an affordable price bet on FmicPro is a new series of high-performance tuning cone air filter models with an extremely attractive and modern design. The construction is made of strong steel mesh, which provides greater rigidity. The main element is a filter element made of synthetic nanofibers, which maximizes air flow while keeping the filtration properties at the highest level
