Performance Air Filter for Porsche Cayman/Boxster with 2.0L F4/ 2.5L F4 Engines

Precision Induction for the Porsche 718: High-Flow Performance for MA2.20 & MA2.22/25 Engines

Who It’s For: Engineered for Porsche 718 Cayman and Boxster owners running the 2.0L and 2.5L Turbocharged Flat-4 powerplants who want to optimize turbo spool and efficiency without modifying the factory airbox.

The Symptom: The factory intake system on the 982-generation Porsche is restricted by a thick, disposable paper filter designed primarily for sound suppression and long service intervals. For a turbocharged engine, air volume is everything. The OEM paper media creates a significant pressure drop, forcing the turbocharger to work harder to pull air through the dense fibers. This often results in a slight delay in throttle response and a feeling that the engine’s breathing is restricted during high-load pulls or track sessions.

The Engineering Fix: This BMC performance filter replaces that restrictive paper with four layers of high-flow cotton gauze, soaked in low-viscosity oil and reinforced by an epoxy-coated alloy mesh. By utilizing "Full Moulding" technology, the filter is cast as a single piece with no welded joints, ensuring it won’t fatigue or leak under the intense suction of a turbocharged flat-4. The result is a filtration threshold of 7 microns—significantly better than the 10-micron standard of OEM filters—while vastly increasing the air velocity entering the compressor housing.

Why Mechanics Choose This Kit

• Optimized Turbo Response: By reducing the intake vacuum restriction, the MA2.20 and MA2.22/25 engines can reach target boost pressure faster, sharpening the 718’s mid-range acceleration.
• Formula 1 Pedigree: BMC is the official supplier for multiple F1 teams; this isn’t just a filter, it’s a precision-engineered component designed to withstand petrol fumes and oxidation.
• Washable & Sustainable: Unlike paper filters that end up in a landfill, this unit is fully regenerable using a BMC cleaning kit, making it the last filter your Porsche will ever need.
