my vote would be slightly bias seeing as piper are the only ones to make one that fits the <'87 Golf

  Dont bother . stick to your good old standard air box with a bit of moddification . take off the lid ,remove the filter and you will see a trumpet shaped piece of plastic sat in the bottom, simply take it out this leaves a nice size hole for xtra air to get in ,replace the standard filter element with a performance one replace lid and take it out for a spin, while driving normally you wont tell the diffrence but when you put your toe down youll hear some nice suttle induction noise..  give it a try after all it is a free mod..

    Cheers....Harr1s....

Well the K&N seems to be gettin a big thumbs up, which i'd give ti too.
We already have the K&N kit on one of the cars, so for a bit of variety, and it's always good to try a different product,  I think i'm gonna go for the Green cotton filter kit !

This kit hasn't any votes, but i reckon they're all gonna be pretty much the same thing.   I'll let you know when i get it ;D ;D

K&N is good for the long run as you dont have to replace it.
Should come standard i think  ;)
