Life 110 / ITG panel filter for A110
Discussion
Just fitted to one of these to my 2021 A110 S.
11k mile car, just under 3 years old.
Seems to make quite a difference - there is more intake noise - not night and day but the car is now giving a more complex / turbo sound.
However, I'm actually more suprised about how much more responsive it is - seems to really get up and go from low rpm's.
I haven't had chance to try the top end yet.
I wasn't expecting much from an air filter - not looking to oversell it, but it almost feels like the car has been remapped.
The old factory air filter looked clean on top but was full of quite a bit of junk from the underneath when I pulled it out. There was also quite a bit of dust / what looks like bits of leaf / twig at the bottom of the airbox - which I vacuumed out.
Certainly in my ownership, the car is not parked under trees.
The car was just serviced at Alpine - was surprised the old air filter hadnt been checked / cleaned / replaced - looking at the service schedule, seems like it is a yr 4 / 24k miles job.
So takeaways - on my car anyway, this air filter seems a good bang per buck mod.
And even if you don't change to a performance filter, it wouldnt hurt to clean out your airbox and check your OE air filter ahead of the service schedule.
