Why Are WIX Racing Filters Not for Street Use?

Last updated on September 30, 2022 @ 10:42 am

While WIX racing filters may be good for the track, they’re not meant for street use. Here’s why:

Racing filters are designed to flow a high volume of air with minimal restriction. This is great for race cars that need as much power as possible, but it’s not ideal for street cars. Street cars need a balance of power and efficiency, and a racing filter can actually decrease your gas mileage and make your engine work harder than it needs to.

GREAT NEWS:

Exciting update! We've collaborated with Wix to offer WBI users with a free plan for all website creation needs - Explore the details here.

PRO TIP: If you are considering using a WIX Racing Filter for your street car, think again! While WIX Racing Filters are great for track cars that see a lot of abuse, they are not meant for street use. Here’s why:

1. WIX Racing Filters are not designed to filter out small particles like dust and pollen.

2. WIX Racing Filters flow less air than standard filters, which can lead to decreased performance on the street.

3. WIX Racing Filters can cause your engine to run hotter due to the increased flow of oil through the filter.

4. WIX Racing Filters are not designed to be used with synthetic oils, which are commonly used in street cars.

5. Finally, WIX Racing Filters are not covered by WIX’s standard warranty when used on the street. So if you have any problems with your filter, you’re on your own!

Bottom line: Stick with a standard filter for your street car and save yourself some headache (and money) down the road.

Racing filters are also much less durable than regular filters, so they won’t last as long. If you’re looking to save money in the long run, stick with a regular filter.

So, while WIX racing filters may be tempting, they’re not the best choice for your street car. Stick with a regular filter and you’ll be happier in the long run.
