Panel filters

[bennettxo]

Was just looking at the pipercross panel filter for my non turbo 1.2 mk3. With this panel filter will it increase the noise? I did have a k&n cone filter on,but it looked chavy under the bonnet and used more petrol.

So looking at this as it still looks oem under the bonnet but still want a bit if noise.

Yeah slightly. You get a puff if you rev it but only ridiculously low down. If you had a TCE you can hear the turbo spool.

Who cares about it "looking chavy"?!! Unless your at McDonald's car park showing it off no one will know!! Only you know it's there mate, if you like it then keep it.

Insurance for a TCE is practically the same as the 1.2 as the engine capacity is exactly the same and 'boy racers' don't tend to buy them.

It was more expensive with me being a new driver. Hoping to get a new one next year now

All I found was a £25 extra charge. Over 9 months.
