Air Filter Pipercross MX5 Mk2/2.5 Reviews

4.6 Rating 10 Reviews
Read MX5parts Reviews

Pipercross are the official filter for the MX5 Championship, supplying every car on the grid with a Pipercross performance air filter. The same high quality filters that go into every MX5 race car can be purchased from us for your road car, so why not get yourself the No.1 filter for your MX5.For drivers that require 30% more airflow and a lifetime, washable air filter, a Pipercross replacement panel filter provides the perfect solution.Designed as an original equipment replacement, a Pipercross panel filter replaces the factory air filter within the airbox. Installation is as simple as opening the airbox, discarding the old filter and replacing it with a free-flowing Pipercross air filter.As airborn 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. Fits all Mk2 & 2.5 models, 1998>2005

Not sure if it's worth the money, although it's a lot cheaper than the K&N panel filter, makes a nicer induction noise past ~5.5k RPM, and supposedly lasts longer than the paper filters, so 4/5 stars seems fair.Easy to drop in.

Fitted this same time as my audiolink iPod lead. Fitting easy, unclip the 2 air filter clips, lift off, slide out the old, slide in the new and re-fit. Job done. I took it down the by pass and in truth, I didn't really notice any difference. My grin was still the same and my heart happy by hey, that's cause I was driving the mx5 lolThe filter? It may make a difference but I didn't find it. The only real positive is that is IS a quality air filter and and such will do a far better job than a standard.Would I buy one again? Yes probably but only for the reason I believe it is justified over a standard for quality to the car.

Delivered in 24 hours as usual.Took about a minute to fit!No difference to sound until you accelerate into higher rev range,then the car suddenly sounds like it's kicked into life like it should do,exactly how you want it,so as not to be intrusive in normal daily use with traffic etc.Very pleased,and recommended purchase

Prompt delivery as usual by MX-5 Parts ( if they can't supply somethingimmediately they send regular updates) , gives a "throatier" sound above 4000rpm. Seems to need less throttle for a particular level of acceleration and gives 1-2 mpg improvement over a standard filter - ( 34-35 mpg compared to 33 with a standard filter on my 1.8 Sport. It may never pay back as you need to buy a cleaning pack every so often, but at least you can rationalise paying for a nice sound !

No way of telling objectively, but seems sharper and sounds nicer at higher revs.
