It sounds like Darth Vader is hiding in the glove box and arguably makes performance worse. Had one for a while on my 1st coupe but removed it and went back to standard airbox.

Hi, i’ve just put a Pipercross filter in my standard air box (20vt) and not really sure if it did anything.
I think I can notice a bit more ‘egerness’ and it might rev a bit quicker but I could just be imagining it!!!
A simple question would be if Fiat could have squeezed more power out of the coupe with a different filter surely they would have? A cone filter is probably less expensive to fabricate than the big plastic box system they put in???
inky goodness!!

I´m running standart, drilled 16VT airbox with paper filter in my modified 16V NA and it dont suffer from lack of air... tried cotton panel and no difference instead of small layer of dust in intake pipe... (so even oiled cotton filter it not filtering well...) instead of beter sound you will not notice any difference unless uyou are running huge amount of bhp... at this level, I would go for biggest cone filter you can fit with foam sleve over it (like in autocorss machines...) https://www.racereadyproducts.com/air-filtration/kn-pre-cleaner-round-tapered-foam-filter-wraps/

I had the cone filter on my car; didn't notice any performance impact either way, but the sound was awesome. I was sold the day I was standing outside PowerFiat and I heard Roger arriving booting a car with one fitted up the road to his garage :-) Only thing is you will need to clean the MAF periodically as it can oil up.
