Features & specs

The air intake system of any combustion engine is very critical. A well designed air intake system will give the best performance in low, mid and high-end torque.

 

The air intake system usually incorporates a simple filter element for prevention of foreign objects. This simple filter is usually made of paper or fibre which is low cost and needs to be replaced periodically. This simple filter although gives good filtration, but it also restrict air from entering into 

the engine.

 

After market drop in panel air filters are introduce to give better air flow. This usually comes in the form of cotton (sandwiched by wire gauze), sponge, or high quality fibre. Most of these filters need oil to trap particles.

 

The disadvantages are

  • Needs dedicated cleaning solution and oiling
  • Not easy to maintain
  • Fine oil droplets with dust might contaminate mass air flow sensor

Hurricane believes in quality and performance. Hurricane Air Filter Element uses Japan's highest grade Stainless Steel for our filter element. The uniform microscopic holes on Hurricane wire mesh ensures very consistent filtration and airflow. Thus allowing engines to breathe better as compared to the inconsistency airflow of cotton/foam filter.

 

With a simple Hurricane panel filter, you can expect a decent horse power gain from mid to high RPM. Acceleration is smoother and faster. The feeling is like changing to an open pod air filter. Hurricane filter will still deliver its promised filtration without compromise under extreme temperature. The filter element is strong and will not be easily shifted even under extreme pressure.

 

Unlike oil-based filters, Hurricane filter causes lesser contamination to the MAF Sensor due to the absence of oil. (Note: Oil + Dust = Sticky Dirt). Hurricane filter frames are made from specially treated rubber instead of injection moulding, thus ensuring a stronger structure and longer lifespan.

 

Fuel Saver

 

With a noticeable increase in torque and power due to an easier breathing engine, one may gain extra mileage of up to 10% just by changing to Hurricane Stainless Steel Air Filter with the same driving style

 

Simplest In Maintenance

 

Hurricane Filters are the easiest to maintain. Just use water and light soap. Blow dry and its ready to use! Cleaning is recommended during every oil change of 5,000km or 10,000km.

Consumer Reviews
Installed this on a 2nd hand GD Fit. Marked difference in performance profile. Better mid end boost. Seems to lose low end pickup slightly. But - Incredibly noisy. Like howling banshee noisy.
Reviewed by Ika_tomas 
I have tried K&N, stock, non-branded, Open Pod and Hurricane. The Hurricane is my personal preference. Before every servicing I swop back to the Stock/No-brand (stock airbox setup), and everytime I feel the difference the Hurricane makes. The car is much more responsive with it. Works very well with exos mod and piggyback ecus. Compared with K&N, Hurricane is much cleaner even if do not oil the K&N (still has some oily residue). The intake sound from the Hurricane is louder and a more solid metallic tone. Compared to open pod, it does not lose so much in low rpm torque. Especially with some light tuning (exhaust, ecu or throttle), this becomes a more cost effective upgrade than many others.
