Testa Arosa Posted October 7, 2012 Report Share Posted October 7, 2012 Hi guys, I'm looking to upgrade my current 'stock' air filter. A friend of mine has the classic mini which is not a stock. Anyway he has a K&N air filter fitted, and he see's a big difference in performance. I have looked on the K&N website for a filter but not getting any luck. Am i looking in the wrong place? or does it just not exist? I drive the Arosa 1.0 SCheers!Testa Arosa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Defcon5 Posted October 7, 2012 Report Share Posted October 7, 2012 An air filter will make no difference in performance, unless the one you removed was full of crap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Testa Arosa Posted October 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 7, 2012 It's not really more performance I'm after, it's just making life better for the engine mechanical sympathy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James827 Posted October 7, 2012 Report Share Posted October 7, 2012 Lol im looking for an Air filter for my SDI. Not Expecting it to do 10 sec Quarter miles or anything.just for the Possible MPG sides of it and maybe to make it rev a little easier. im looking at a few brands..K&n, Green, BMC and Piper-cross. They are all around the Same Price. FYI, im looking for a Panel filter Replacement, Not an Induction kit.Might bung another Paper one in there for now as they are a bit expensive and my money needs to go elsewhere. Dear Santa..

Martsmithy Posted October 28, 2012 Report Share Posted October 28, 2012 On k&n website it says it doesn't stock panels for arosas, but it does for lupos, so just do your car year a then lupo and it comes up the same:) they are the same! but its around £70 as there's 2 filters an there's no point in doing it...
