The high performance single air filters are made of multi-layer cotton, treated wafer-thin with special filter oil they have up to 40% more air permeability compared to a paper filter.
This one-off purchase saves the constant costs of conventional filters and thus also protects the environment. Fuel consumption can be reduced and engine performance increased thanks to the higher air flow.
