If you are looking to get better power from your diesel I would recommend putting a panel filter in and not a intake!

Intakes look better but you lose power for the look and it is not about that!

The air box from the Ibiza FR160 seems to be a decent choice - with a panel filter  :happy2:

I'm running an ITG panel filter with a slightly modified standard airbox.

After all my intakes I fitted on my 1.9 pd I found it ran best with just the OE paper filter. Diesels dont need a lot of air like petrols and the standard air box will flow more than enough air for the engine. If you havent already Id put the money towards a remap.
