Product Information

Full details

The Pipercross Performance Replacement Air Filter (PP1487) is designed for automotive enthusiasts seeking improved engine efficiency and throttle response without the added noise of a full intake system. By replacing restrictive factory paper filters with high-flow, triple-layer foam technology, this drop-in element provides up to 30% more airflow and better acceleration; however, users must commit to a regular cleaning and re-oiling maintenance schedule to retain its lifetime performance capabilities.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Will this filter increase my intake noise?

No, because it fits inside the factory airbox, it maintains the standard intake sound levels.

How often should I clean the filter?

We recommend checking it every 5,000 to 10,000 miles, depending on the environment you drive in.

Do I need to re-oil the filter after cleaning?

Yes, re-oiling is essential for the foam to effectively capture fine dust and dirt particles.

Is this a direct replacement?

Yes, it is designed to drop directly into your existing vehicle's airbox without any modifications.

Can I use standard oil to maintain it?

No, you must use genuine Pipercross cleaning and oiling products to avoid damaging the foam material.

Troubleshooting

Engine feels hesitant after cleaning

Ensure the filter is completely dry before re-oiling; trapped moisture can restrict airflow.

Airbox will not close properly

Check that the rubber seal around the edge of the filter is properly seated and free of debris.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Increases engine airflow by up to 30%
  • Simple drop-in installation process
  • Washable design saves money over time
  • Improves acceleration and throttle response
  • Does not increase cabin intake noise

Cons

  • Requires periodic washing and re-oiling

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation is straightforward: open your factory airbox, remove the old paper filter, clean out any debris from the bottom of the box, and drop in the Pipercross PP1487. Ensure the seal is seated correctly before closing the lid.

Maintenance:

  1. Inspect the filter every 5,000 to 10,000 miles.
  2. Wash using dedicated Pipercross cleaning fluid to break down dirt and old oil.
  3. Rinse from the inside out to avoid driving particles deeper into the foam.
  4. Allow to air dry completely.
  5. Re-apply a light, even coat of Pipercross retention oil to ensure optimal filtration.
