DESCRIPTION
The range of RacingLine High-Flow Panel Air Filters for Golf 7 replaces the restrictive factory paper filters with an improved, high flow and reusable foam filter. The Panel Filter is one of the most cost-effective enhancements you can make to allow the engine to breathe better and operate more efficiently = improving engine efficiency, and hence power and fuel economy. By removing the inevitable restrictions that the standard paper panel filter gives, the Panel Filter allows an increase in airflow through to the turbo.
Result? More mid-range power and improved economy, without risking your warranty.
RacingLine filters were developed for use in their race cars, some of which are required to run with the standard airbox under the regulations. So they needed to get the highest flow efficiency possible, but combined with the most effective levels of filtration from air-borne particulates. The result is the exact filter construction that we use in their race cars, but also one of the most popular and sensible modifications to make to your road car.
CONSTRUCTION
RacingLine use TriFoam triple-layer laminate of open-cell polyurethane foam, which gives an exceptionally high level of filtration to protect the engine from contaminants in the air down to well below 5 microns, giving the highest level of filtration to protect the engine. The foam we specify is the best in the market = exactly the same specification as used by certain well-known F1 teams. All RacingLine filters are hand-built in the UK. The triple foam layers are held in place by a stainless steel open mesh, surrounded by a rubber seal to provide an airtight seal against the standard airbox. There are of course cheaper, single-layer filters on the market. RacingLine have tried many of these over the years; but in their experience they do not combine satisfactory levels of flow and filtration = meaning a compromise for your engine (sometimes quite significant) for the sake of a small price difference.
APPLICATIONS
- Golf 7 1.2 TSI
- Golf 7 1.4 TSI
FITTING INSTRUCTIONS
Fitting is simple = open the airbox, remove the standard filter, and replace it directly with the Panel Filter.
