I have the 155 mhev Puma and wanted to know if anyone had replaced their air filter and if so seen any improvements?

3-5hp gain, not worth the extra money compared to ordinary air filters if your car is a regular car.

If your after significant performance gains get a remap.

That's just my option and what do I know! :)

Is there a performance air filter on the market for the Puma?

There's this one...... https://www.thepipercrossshop.co.uk/pro ... 1~yr_2020
I'm guessing though that anything that fits the Fiestas with the same engine would work...

The one mentioned above by @Sparks is compatible with Puma. Above link is for the same filter but through CEUK and is under Puma Mk2 compatible list on their website.

Unfortunately the airboxes on Fiesta and Puma are a different shape and therefore the filters are not interchangeable.

Hi guys. Does changing the air filter enhance any engine noise?

At higher RPM there maybe a slight sound increase. Would sound better without the exhaust :lol:

Panel filters sometimes give a small increase in bhp but usually work better when fitted in conjunction with say an exhaust, remap etc.
They can also affect the engine note but not sure you would hear the difference with the 3 cyl , cone filters are better if placed correctly for lots of cool fresh air but your warranty will probably be void so I would check first before doing any mods.
Do Ford not do any performance parts for the puma yet or maybe contact mountune as they are Ford approved I believe.
