Toyota-Powered Sports, Family Cars Now Get a Spectre Performance Air Filter Upgrade

Spectre Performance HPR9482 replacement air filter

Engineered to fit into the stock air box, the Spectre Performance HPR9482 can boost airflow for Avensis, Corolla, and Elise engines through its large surface area and synthetic filter media.

Several generations of a diverse international range of sports and family cars sharing small- to medium-displacement Toyota gasoline engines can now benefit from an air filter upgrade with the Spectre Performance HPR9482.

This group includes production year 2001 through 2015 Toyota Avensis, Corolla, and Matrix, Lotus Elise, and even a Scion and Pontiac Vibe that fulfill a wide variety of family transport, daily driver, club racer, and weekend fun-car duties. All will have better aspiration with a washable, reusable Spectre Performance filter (see below for a complete list of models).

Perhaps the biggest population of the group is the Corolla, built in several plants worldwide and in Mississippi in the United States. As one of the best-selling cars in the world since the mid-1970s, it has been praised for its durability and practicality, and 40 million were sold by 2013. It provides the platform for the Toyota Matrix and GM's Pontiac Vibe.

The Avensis is a full-size family car built in England, and includes a hatchback and station wagon plus the Avensis Verso MPV (multi-purpose vehicle) in the line. It is exported to Japan and other European nations, and is not sold in the United States. Like the Corolla, it is conservatively designed and a staple of the sedan segment, getting people and gear from point A to point B safely and securely.

The Lotus Elise is the head-turning mid-engine roadster that is a true sports car: no-frills appointments, lightweight, exciting to drive, and trackable. It received federally mandated safety updates and the Toyota 1.8L 2ZZ engines and drivetrain to enter the U.S. market in 2005. Described as "unfiltered and capable as an Italian exotic, at roughly a quarter of the cost", the Elise is an ultimate ride for the performance enthusiast.

The bottom line for all these cars is the need to operate at high performance, and owners who replace the stock paper air filters in these cars with the HPR9482 can help keep their engines up there with proper airflow and clean intakes. Depending on driving conditions, the air filter should be cleaned annually, or every 12,000 miles depending on driving conditions. And after investing in a Spectre Performance replacement air filter now, owners can just clean the filter and re-install it.

Engineered and constructed to fit into the stock air box, the Spectre Performance HPR9482 seats perfectly and provides excellent protection with a synthetic, pre-dyed filter media reinforced by steel mesh and mounted in a urethane frame. It designed to boost acceleration and add horsepower with a larger surface area that allows better airflow than the stock paper version. The filter comes pre-treated, and is ready to install. Spectre Performance replaceable air filters are also backed by a limited 90-day warranty against material or workmanship defects.
