Multi layer foam performance
Pipercross uses a special triple layer foam construction to balance maximum airflow with exceptional filtration. The outer coarse foam captures larger particles, the middle medium layer traps the bulk of incoming debris and the inner fine layer catches the remaining fine particles. Unlike thin cotton or paper elements that can clog and restrict, Pipercross foam maintains strong airflow for longer to keep performance consistent.
Real world benefits for your BMW 118d
Faster, smoother airflow means sharper throttle response and a more eager feel throughout the rev range. With reduced restriction and bench tested results, you can expect improvements in driveability and efficiency. We run Pipercross filters on our own cars and customers consistently report a noticeable improvement and long term value from the reusable design.
