HOW IS A BMC FILTER REGENERATED?
We recommend using original BMC kits only, as other products may not be effective or may damage the filter permanently, thus invalidating the warranty.
We recommend regenerating the filter (washing + oil application) every 20.000 – 25.000 km to ensure best performance and long service life.
This value is a rough estimate and can vary based on the climatic conditions and the ground on which the vehicle is used (sand, dirt roads, etc.).
The various steps to be carried out in order to regenerate the filtering element are indicated in the instructions contained in the regeneration kit.

CYLINDRICAL FILTER
BMC air filters are designed and produced to ensure a higher air flow than original paper filters. In F1, for example, BMC cotton filters minimize the loss of air flow pressure passing through the air filter; this way ensures the best conditions for full exploitation of maximum power. Therefore the benefits of replacing the original paper filter with BMC cotton air filter, produced using the same technology and materials as the F1 air filters, are evident.
DESIGN AND MATERIALS
Qualified engineers using advanced software and expert technicians using the latest technologies produce BMC air filters. An F1 filter must be very light, must be made of the best raw materials and must improve performance. For this reason we use only alloy mesh with epoxy coating to ensure protection from petrol fumes and from oxidization due to the humidity of the air. The filtering material is composed of a special cotton gauze soaked with low-viscosity oil to give you the best air permeability.

Whether you’re upgrading a 911 Turbo, Cayman GT4, or Boxster, our manufacturer-quality performance air filters ensure long-lasting performance and reliability.
What Do Performance Air Filters Do?
Performance air filters allow your Porsche’s engine to breathe more efficiently by reducing airflow restriction and enhancing fuel-air mixture quality.
Core Functions:
- Increase
airflow to the engine for better combustion and power.
- Filter
harmful particles such as dust, dirt, and debris to protect the

from dirt, dust, or pollen build-up.
- Oil
contamination (especially in reusable filters).
- Physical
damage to the filter material or seals.
- Improper cleaning or maintenance.
- Extended service intervals causing reduced airflow.
Symptoms of a failing air filter include reduced engine power, poor fuel economy, hesitation under acceleration, or unusual intake noise. Replacing or upgrading ensures consistent performance and protection.
