Pretty dam good on response i noticed on my old 1.1 8v and my newer 1.2 16v that both K&N give much better response from the point you hit the pedal. Do a test tap the accelerator pedal fast and see how many revs you get on your engine. Get one of these filters then try the tap again you will notice the engine kicks in much earlier apart from this no difference. Better pickup after gear changes too. If you want quality go for pipercross if you want noise and the popular brand go for K&N, my K&N fell apart in a couple of months, Pipercross still going strong

Sensible mods go far

But was the standard filter you replaced in good condition or did it need replacing anyway

Ye when you dab the throttle the revs pic up faster but when your driving it only makes a dif when your well up the revs and the std filter restricts the air flow!my std filter was just out the box 105 miles thats all and i did notice a dif! (did nothing for my 1.1 but both 1.242 16v & 1.581 8v improved!

A girl phoned me the other day and said, 'come on over; nobody's home." I went over. Nobody was home.
