K&N Filter and other initial purchases.

[Moonhead]

Just got my 1.6 VTi DStyle Plus and I'll be buying a K&N filter for it as I had one with my previous car and it was nothing short of awesome.
Does anyone have experience with K&N filters in the 1.6 N/A engine and any performance/acoustic improvements?

Also are there any other essential mods or kit that you guys suggest a first time DS3 owner buys?

Cheers! :ds3:

With it being a NA engine you are extremely limited when it comes to engine performance enhancements.

Oh and i use a Pipecross filter, had it for three years i think, seems pretty durable.

I'm not massively bothered with any major performance enhancements as of now.
I couldn't find a pipercross panel filter for the DS3 NA engine, do you know where I could pick one up (Tried Ebay)

Ok but you did mention performance improvements.

Thanks! I may give this a go instead of a K&N (bit cheaper too :lemon
Sorry for the confusion I just meant in terms of the filter, sorry :P

Im not sure you will notice any change to sound or performance though. Others on here may know different.
