Why foam media works on the E36 M3 3.0

Multi-stage foam uses a clever coarse-to-fine structure to capture debris progressively while keeping resistance low. The result is high-capacity filtration that resists clogging, so your S50 can keep pulling hard mile after mile. Unlike thin paper pleats that choke as they load up, this sports filter continues to breathe freely, supporting stable torque and smoother part-throttle response.
