Genesis GV70 Air Filter Testing Procedures, Parameters, and Results

At Boosted Mentality Motorsports, we pride ourselves on delivering high-performance automotive parts that exceed industry standards. Our latest innovation, a high-performance air filter for the 2022-2025 Genesis GV70 with the 3.5T engine, promises significant gains in horsepower, torque, and fuel efficiency. To ensure our products meet these claims, we conduct rigorous testing. Here’s an in-depth look at our testing procedures, parameters, and the impressive results we achieved.

Testing Procedures

Dyno Testing:

Dyno testing is crucial to evaluate the performance gains in horsepower and torque. We conducted a series of 10 dyno runs for both the OEM and BMM air filters under controlled conditions. Each test was carried out on the same dyno machine to ensure consistency and reliability of the data.

Fuel Economy Testing:

Fuel economy is a critical aspect of performance. To test this, we conducted five separate tests for each filter type over varying distances: 50, 100, 250, 500, and 1000 miles. These tests were performed under typical driving conditions in St. Louis, MO, during June, ensuring real-world relevance.

Results

Dyno Testing Results:

The dyno testing revealed that our BMM filter consistently outperformed the OEM filter across all runs. Here are the top results:

- OEM Filter:
- Peak Horsepower: 286.17 HP
- Peak Torque: 304.68 lb-ft
- BMM Filter:
- Peak Horsepower: 315.47 HP
- Peak Torque: 319.52 lb-ft

These results translate to an peak horsepower gain of approximately 29.3 HP and a torque increase of about 14.84 lb-ft when using the BMM filter.

Fuel Economy Testing Results

Our fuel economy tests demonstrated that the BMM filter provides noticeable improvements in efficiency. The average results over varying distances are as follows:

- OEM Filter:
- ±1.5% average of 20 MPG
- BMM Filter:
- ±1% average of 22 MPG

This equates to an average improvement of 2 MPG with the BMM filter, highlighting its efficiency benefits.

On one particular trip, which seemed to be during very ideal conditions, we achieved an average of 26.1 MPG across a 750+ mile trip. While these are great individual results, we have not concluded that these will be the norm with varying road and weather conditions.

Conclusion

Our comprehensive testing procedures confirm that the Boosted Mentality Motorsports high-performance air filter delivers substantial improvements in both power and fuel efficiency. By adhering to rigorous testing protocols, we ensure that our products not only meet but exceed the expectations of performance enthusiasts.

At Boosted Mentality Motorsports, we are committed to pushing the boundaries of automotive performance. Stay tuned for more innovative products and detailed testing insights as we continue to elevate your driving experience.
