Review: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Excellent Air Filter – Restored MPG & Acceleration! - This Spearhead MPG Defense Max Thrust Engine Air Filter (MT-450) is a fantastic upgrade over stock filters! Installation was super easy, and the OEM fit was perfect for my 2015 Nissan Altima 2.5L—it dropped right in with no issues. Since replacing my old filter, I’ve noticed improved throttle response and smoother engine operation. My gas mileage even went up by 2 MPG, which is a great bonus! The Hex-D pleat design truly traps more dirt while maintaining strong airflow. For just $13.99, the quality and performance exceed expectations—better than higher-priced options. If you want a simple, cost-effective way to enhance fuel efficiency and acceleration, this is a must-buy! Highly recommend! 🚗🔧✅

## Features

- Experience an Obvious Difference: Whether you are noticing a delay in acceleration, less than average gas mileage or own a higher mileage vehicle, our Max Thrust engine air filters will provide a clear and cost effective upgrade over stock performance
- Trap 2X Dirt vs. Standard Air Filters: Our unique Hex-D pleat design creates maximum holding capacity for trapping unwanted dirt and debris without compromising airflow like standard air filters thanks to multiple layers of progressively finer filter media that allows air to flow freely even when the filter is dirty
- Increased Power and Mileage up to 15K Miles: Deficient airflow can cause your engine to work twice as hard to suck in the minimum amount of air it needs to perform regularly, resulting in poorer gas mileage and lower power efficiency; Max Thrust air filters are designed to give your engine a break by delivering as much clean air as it needs to perform optimally up to 15K miles
- Do It Yourself: Replacement for Elantra (2011-16) does not fit 2011-12 4 Dr Hatchback Touring Trim, Elantra Coupe (2013-14), Elantra GT (2013-17), Forte (2014-18), Forte5 EX/LX 2.0L L4 (2014-18) does not fit 1.6L L4 SX, Forte Koup EX 2.0L L4 Only (2014-16) does not fit 1.6L L4 SX, Sportage (2011-16, does not fit 2.0L L4) make sure to enter your year, make and model above to check fitment; the engine air filter is an easy replacement that can save you money at the repair shop
- Better Filter than Your Last One: We know it’s hard to choose from so many different brands carrying the same product; we make it easier for our customers to decide with a simple promise
