any good air filters

[mouthyman]

does anyone know of any good air filiters or induction kits for a mk1 clio 1.2. preferably fairly cheap.
i currently have a K&N 57i induction kit but the filter is squashed and so needs replacing. but you cant get spare filters so i need to replace it all.

squashed? in what way?

 

[mouthyman]

the previous owner had squashed the filter with the bonnet. so it now backfires and the mixture is slightly wrong, i dont think it'll will pass its MOT so i need to replace it.
know of any good replacements

the k&n is a good filter, so another one of them would be ok
just look around on the internet, have you tried http://www.k-tecracing.com/

or you could always put the original air box in and get a panel filter if you haven't got much money to spend

ok thanks, i wanted something that maybe increased performance or gave it a bit of a roar but i have a sports exhaust so i dont know if id hear the induction or not. what do you think

panel filter in standard air box will probably increase performance as its just as free flowing but not sucking in as much hot air, doesnt sound as good though, im not sure about the 1.2 8V but i know you can feel a difference in perormance with mine on (1.2 16V)
