what air filter do u have at the moment?. stock air box?

you can go for a K&N pannal filter to fit in the stockair box or a K&N air pod will go very nicly also. You will get better performance from both of these upgrades, as 4 wheels im sure someone else can help u out with tha one on the forums mate.

Hmm, I just emailed K&N about their filter for the Jazz.

I asked them whether it would fit on my 1.2 L12A and they said it won't fit unfortunately, however what do you guys reckon?

If not, what other kits are available that will fit the 1.2L L12A engine?

spoon/ trust drop in filter:thumbsup:

The K&N panel / drop in filter is A$150 so a bit cheaper than the spoon /trust ones.

Drop-in filters are a waste of time, if you want to gain performance, get the cold air intake kit from Toda Australia.

I have tried the Trust drop-in filter and Apexi intake kit. Apexi kit is far better in performance but their filter is made by paper and it can't be washed. Save up for the cold air intake kit from Toda Australia, it's worth it. Their kit has tuned length runner, cold air induction and washable filter, and it's dyno proven to increase power throughout the entire power band. :thumbsup:
