K&N Panel

Fitted to my 206SE in September 2001 at Trax in Silverstone by Simon from http://www.pugsport-gti.com.

I immediately noticed a difference in a slight increased power and the engine revving 'free'er'. I am sure I have a few more bhp (not been tested officially yet) so seems a worthwhile buy for a small investment.

I would recommend the K&N panel and wouldn't even consider a induction kit unless it was one of those expensive forced air types that costs and arm and a leg.

Are they easy to fit and how much more power do they give? Do they increase your insurance.

The K&N Panel gives an independantly tested 3-4bhp increase over standard..

Warranty is NOT affected

I changed my airfilter. Now, I put Ramair. Ramair is better then k&n. Please look results. K&N can gice more hp but ramair is giving much more torque. Ramair's dust capacity is much more better. Ramair producing by k&n

Just bought and fitted a K&N panel filter, through Simon at Pugsport-GTi.

Definately worth the Â£35, the engine does seem more free and throttle reponse has picked up.

Don't get me wrong it doesn't turn the CC into a supercar, but a noticeable diffence for a few quid.

cool - glad to hear it makes a difference - may give it a go myself.

was it easy to fit?
(like, easy for someone who has done nothing more complicated than check the oil on a car before!)

Andrew, yeah simple mate.

The thing is pre-oiled so no a***ing around, just whack it in.

Four screws to undo air box lid,
Remove old,
Put in K&N checking it fits snug,
Do up screws ensuring lid is closed fully.

I'm no expert, but it is easy. As the box says it does not affect your warranty.

I let you know what it does for fuel economy? up/down/no change we'll see?

Freedive, so what's it done to your economy then? Pauline

Seems a little better? is this possible? No surely not, I'll fill her up and run a tank and see what the difference is.

Three weeks and four tanks of petrol later the result is....

The K&N makes fuel economy a tiny, weeny bit better. Saying that I didn't buy it for that reason, - Â£35 quid well spent.

I do notice a difference but it is enhanced much more by fitting a superchip as they work togther t give much better throttle reponse, acceleration and a bit better fuel economy.

How much and is it worth the cash? What diffence to your insurance premium?

So what difference does this filter make...apart from the slight increase in performance and possible economy...does it sound a lot better or not?
