Vortech Superchargers 1.75" Race Bypass Air Filter 8H040-175
High-Flow Race Bypass Air Filter for Vortech Supercharger Systems
The Vortech Superchargers 1.75" Race Bypass Air Filter (PN 8H040-175) is designed specifically for use on Vortech supercharger bypass and blow-off valve outlets in race-oriented and high-performance applications. Featuring a 1.75-inch inlet size, this compact filter allows the bypass valve to vent clean, filtered air while preventing debris from entering the system.
This filter is intended for setups where the bypass valve vents to atmosphere rather than being recirculated, making it ideal for race, street/strip, and custom supercharger installations.
Race-Oriented Filtration Design
The filter utilizes a high-flow aluminum mesh and oiled cotton fiber element that provides minimal airflow restriction while still capturing fine particulate matter. The misted oil treatment helps trap even small contaminants, protecting the bypass valve and surrounding components without impeding rapid pressure relief during throttle lift.
