New Pipercross induction kit for Fiat 500 and Panda

Filtration specialist Pipercross has released a superb induction kit for the new Fiat 500 and Panda 100HP. The smart looking kit not only adds a power and torque increase throughout the rev range, but also gives a throaty induction ‘roar’ under hard acceleration.

This latest kit for the 1.4 16 valve motor comes complete with a precision moulded silicone hose and high flow conical filter, plus all accessories needed for a quick and easy fitment. The filter itself is easily removable for cleaning and maintenance, while the ingenious ‘push-together’ design makes for a quick and easy installation. Fully illustrated fitting instructions are included, making this a realistic home fitment for any moderately talented mechanic.

By placing the filter right behind the front grille, a ready supply of cold air is available to keep inlet temperatures low, resulting in more torque, more power and ultimately, more throttle response through each gear.

The filter inside uses a unique multi-laminated open cell polyurethane foam construction, meaning the Pipercross kit can actually filter down to a much finer rate than the OEM part, preventing any foreign particles from entering the induction tract and protecting the engine. This same construction means that the filter can also go longer between service intervals than even leading cotton-gauze filters, before needing to be cleaned.

Prices start at just £110.63 plus VAT.
