Pipercross Panel filter, Replaces original standard filter, For 1600 diesel engines and early GTI 16V 86-89

For drivers that require 30% more airflow* and a lifetime, washable air filter** but without an increase in intake sound, a Pipercross replacement element panel filters provide the perfect solution.

Designed as an original equipment replacement, a Pipercross panel filter replaces the factory air filter within the air box. Installation is as simple as opening the air box, discarding the old filter and replacing it with a free-flowing Pipercross air filter.

As air born dirt particles are trapped by a paper or cotton-gauze air filter, there is a dramatic increase in pressure drop which essentially robs the engine of airflow and power. Due to the deep foam construction of each Pipercross air filter, airflow is able to negotiate trapped dirt.

Air filter service intervals are extended with the Pipercross panel filter, with a lifespan (between cleaning) of double that of the same paper filter and nearly three times that of a cotton-gauze filter. By simply cleaning and refitting the Pipercross panel filter, there is less waste and service costs are reduced.
