PRL Motorsports Air Filter - Part Number: PRL-AF-4198

Introducing the PRL-AF-4198 air filter from PRL Motorsports, a product that embodies decades of expertise and passion for performance. Crafted with the needs of both track enthusiasts and daily drivers in mind, this air filter is engineered to elevate your engine's performance while ensuring durability.

One of the standout features of the PRL-AF-4198 is its double-layer woven cotton design, which boasts deep, dense pleats. This innovative structure increases the filtration surface by 10% to 15%, allowing for a greater volume of air to flow into the combustion chamber without sacrificing filtration quality. Customers have noted significant improvements in throttle response and overall engine efficiency after installing this filter.

Designed to capture particles as small as 5 microns, the PRL-AF-4198 ensures that your engine remains protected from harmful contaminants. Encased in a robust stainless steel mesh, this filter is built to withstand tough conditions, resisting dents and providing added strength for long-lasting performance.

Manufactured through a precise four-step, low-pressure injection molding process, the rubber base of the PRL-AF-4198 is bonded to the interior components, virtually eliminating rubber seepage that can impede airflow. This thoughtful design not only enhances aesthetics but also ensures a consistent, airtight seal that absorbs vibrations and endures millions of heat cycles.

Furthermore, the filter is treated with a specially formulated lightweight lubricant that is friendly to vehicle sensors. This lubricant creates a positive magnetic charge that attracts negatively charged dust particles, keeping the cotton filter clear and maximizing airflow. Many users have commented on the noticeable difference in air intake and engine sound after the installation of this filter.
