High-Flow BMC Performance Intake Filter for Ford Fiesta, Mazda 2 & Mini Tritec Engines
Who It’s For: Designed specifically for Ford Fiesta V, Mazda 2 (DY), and First-Generation Mini owners running the Sigma and Tritec engine families who want better throttle response without the noise or heat soak of an open-pod intake.
The Problem: The Sigma and Tritec engine families are surprisingly rev-happy, but they are significantly hampered by restrictive factory paper filters. These OEM filters are designed for low-cost maintenance, not airflow. They often suffer from "surface loading," where dirt blocks the pores quickly, choking the engine’s air supply and dulling the power delivery as the filter ages.
The Solution: We use BMC’s race-proven multi-layered cotton gauze to correct these factory limitations. By moving from a 10-micron paper barrier to a 7-micron oil-soaked cotton media, this filter allows a higher volume of air to reach the intake manifold while providing superior protection against fine particulates. The result is a more responsive engine that pulls harder through the mid-range.
Why This is the Ultimate Upgrade
-
Enhanced Airflow: The low-viscosity oil and cotton mesh allow for a much higher CFM (Cubic Feet per Minute) rating compared to the dense fibers of a stock paper element.
-
Full Moulding Construction: Unlike cheaper filters that glue their frames together, BMC uses a single-mould process. This means no welded joints, no cracking, and a perfect seal inside your factory airbox.
-
Washable & Sustainable: This is the last filter you’ll ever buy for the car. It is fully regenerable using a BMC cleaning kit, making it better for your wallet and the environment.
