Sogefi, the automotive components company of the CIR Group, is the Original Equipment supplier of the oil filter module mounted on the Ferrari 720-cv, 3.9- litre V8 engine.

During the 21st edition of the International Engine & Powertrain of the Year Award, Ferrari’s V8 won the overall title for the fourth consecutive year, a feat never achieved by any other engine.

To guarantee better results in terms of efficiency, pressure-drop in case of high flow rates, and filter element’s durability and mechanical rigidity under all the extreme conditions to which these sports engines are subjected, Sogefi’s oil filter module uses a protective net in its by-pass valve. A technological solution designed to provide class-leading performance and durability.
