divd23, i have a k&n in my 1.0, all it does it make more noise and a little more power over 4500rpm, i would recomend a panel filter and drilled airbox with cold feed, that will remove any flatspots also.

dont mean to be the party pooper but dont spend any money on the
1.0 12v or the 1.2 8v engines as they are the worst excuse of an engine ever build with 0 power and no way worth the money of making them any better.


having said that if u do want the cone filter i think the BFO one PVD do is universal but it will make yer car slower.
