Just ordered a BMC CDA now. So got a brand new (2 day old) K&N for sale!

it will make alot of difference where you have the filter as if you have it at the front of the car the air is getting forced into the bay into the filter but yeah nice one for getting the BMC

I would've mounted the K&N where you fed your cold air from, behind the grill (If it fits behind there). But don't really matter now.

On a another note, get your priorities right!!! You could've got coilovers for the price of a K&N and BMC

Yeah tell me about it. Should have just gone with my 1st thought and got the BMC straight away

Would i be able to use the K&N filter on my 1.0 6n2?

I cant see it being any different to mine. If its a MPI I would say so but double check with K&N.

where do i find the necesary information?

Just checked for you mate. They sell one for 1.0 and one for 1.4. But not totaly sure the difference. Somebody on here may know?

Maybe the 1.4 is just slightly bigger? Cant see it being a problem though.

just check the sie of your throttle body mate i think it should definitely be 50mm as well as the 1.0l is exactly the sameengine just not bored out to 1.4

the only difference i think is the 1.0l has only one breather i think so what yu do is put the plug in the bottom ot the k and n and block it i used a bit of old teatowel and a zip tie on my 1.4 as i removed one of the breathers also

im 99.9% sure it should definitely fit

Here's some pics of the car as havent put any up with the Hella's, after finaly being able to clean it.











Parked on my drive at my new house!

i think ou shud maybe slightly smoke/spray the top brake light above your rear window, looks a bt out of place with your rear black lights

car is looking tidy otherwise though

Damn you! I didn't notice that

Wont smoke it for a while as I had a small leak from there and its sealed on there. Might do that in the future though or try and pick up a second one and smoke it ready for the swap. Cheers.

Thanks for comments

sorry mate, not a fan on your colour car, could of been worse could of been lexarse lights lol, but anyway there not that bad, maybe if you get some more smoked things, and like the other chap said smoke your 3rd brake light

I agree, I thnik I'd choose the OEM ones over them with your car colour

i think witha bit more colour coding with black the lights will fit in really well. i think they look allright now though.

Could try window tints, black vw badge, black alloys, etc...
