On a standard car you won't tell any difference, want that induction roar or not is the question.

The standard setup is an induction filter... all car's have an induction filter.

To answer what I think you're asking, unless you're going to couple a performance filter with a free flowing exhaust and remap, there's little benefit to be had with just the performance filter on its own.

Except noise!, if you have a MK1 172 standard airbox you cannot improve its design.
ITG filter to go inside and you're laughing

does a free flowing exhaust mean a decat

A relocated cold air feed might help in lowering intake temps and a panel filter will just make more induction noise

Ph1 Airbox, ITG Filter and Improved CAF's

Use that guide, i did that along with a pipercross panel filter and pulled 165bhp / 149 torque , which was better than some 172's with many more mods.

Yes mate.

As said standard box, ITG or Ktec panel filter with better CAFs. Remove acoustic valve also if you have one. Its arguable whether the ph-quick airbox is better.
