Why You Shouldn't Fit a Cone Air Filter on a 'Normal' Car

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Air filter

Video tutorial

In this video, the YouTuber explains why it is not advisable to fit a cone filter on a 'normal' car. Our cars need to have 'fresh' air: this is why the intercooler was invented. Engines require fresh air. If you fit a cone filter inside the engine, uncovered, it will take in all the heat from the engine, which will then go back into our engine, causing it to take in increasingly hot air. Sure, it makes a nice noise, but it serves no purpose; we are only damaging our standard car, which remains standard for everything else, and the sports filter does nothing at all, in fact, it is just a detriment.
