Product Description

The BMC FB473/04 high-flow panel air filter is engineered as a direct replacement for the factory air filter in select Porsche 911 models built on the 997 platform. Designed to enhance intake airflow while maintaining strong particulate filtration, this premium air filter supports improved engine responsiveness and efficient breathing at higher RPMs, making it ideal for performance-focused driving.

Constructed from multi-layer oiled cotton gauze with an epoxy-coated alloy mesh and a full-mold rubber frame, the FB473/04 delivers durability and a precise seal within the OEM airbox. Its washable and reusable design allows for long-term use and reduced maintenance costs compared to disposable paper filters. The filter installs directly into the original airbox with no modifications required, making it a simple yet effective upgrade for performance Porsche enthusiasts.
