    Airflow direction is key! Very good info here. You can always establish the airflow direction of the cabin blower fan by holding a light piece of tissue paper over it while running the a/c (don’t stick your fingers into moving parts!) and watch which direction it pulls the paper. That is your air flow direction and that is the direction in which you should install the arrow on your filter.

    Test report is rather vague. It does not reflect on filtration industry standard. Not to mention it does not state anything bout filtration parameters of the elements. Remember, it is a filter we are talking about. Something that needs to separate harmful particles. If we were chasing max flow an min restriction clear recommendation would be - 'get rid of that filter'. Best regards

      That's my worry. The p08 only filters down to 80 microns. Whereas the oiled cotton filters (like paper filters) are usually 10 microns or less.

      Auto Fanatic but doesn’t that mean that it won’t filter dust & particulates as well as a filter (OEM, etc) that you cannot see through? I really want to try the Sprint filter in my Giulia Ti, but very concerned about getting dirt in the engine and damaging it. Any info on how much worse or better the Sprint is in filtering compared to the OEM?

      JimBob keep the stock unless you have a cobra jet and cams. That’s what I gave and it makes sense but if you go open CAI driving is fine but watch in traffic your intake air temps are gonna sky rocket compared to ambient.

    Based on your great info in this vid, I went for the sprint filter model P08F1-85 on my Quad. This version is the one up from the P08 in the vid with very similar filtration but apparently 3 times the airflow!
    I can tell you right now the difference it makes is very noticeable, both in torque and top end power...very impressive. I guess it probably feels even better on mine due to the RaceChip plugin module.
    Down side is it costs over 3 times as much as the P08.
    I’ll keep checking for dust etc but is a pain to get it all off on your own.

    Man, @AF! Wish you did this comparison about a year ago! Haha. When I had some work done on the QV, I had the BMC filter installed. I had done my own research, and honestly I was personally leaning towards Sprint because of some of what I was reading. But most experts with Italian cars swore by BMC, so I went with BMC. I know it’s a substantial improvement vs. OEM, but I had it installed along with the Centerline X-Pipe and an ECU upgrade from Fabspeed Motorsports.
    Do you think it’s worth a swap-out at this time? As always, THANK you for your videos and your dedication to other fanatics out there!

    • @autofanaticcars
      @autofanaticcars  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      nothing wrong with the BMC I purely did the switch just for testing to share with you guys long term, the Sprint Filter is interesting in the data I found on them which I share in this video. Both are great options.

    but the BMC and K&N are only supposed to be cleaned every 50,000 miles. Taking ten minutes to reoil it every 50,000 miles is not some big maintenance hassle. A looser weave with oil to trap particles has every chance of filtering better than a tighter weave of dry fabric. All that matters is the flow and filtration, and Sprint never really talks about particle filtration ability.

      Yeah it just likes you don't use a filter as you keep the debris went through your turbo. I am still leaning towards k&n or BMC as they trapped the debris with cons of having to clean your maf sensor at least 10-20k km to keep it go freshly.
