Hi guys, i came across this panel filter: (https://www.thepipercrossshop.co.uk/products/pipercross-car-panel-filter-pp1262) and started wondering if a better filter will do something nice for the car like better sound or responsiveness for my 1 liter k11 or it will be a waste of money? I will be glad to hear some opinions!
Is a better air filter worth it?

In theory it will give more power, but in reality it'll be probably less than 0.1hp.
It's a common misconception that changing one thing will improve the power, more power comes from more air and fuel going in. But the air flow needs to be thought of with the entire system, from air filter through to the end of the exhaust, if one (or more) part is blocking the flow then the best filter in the world wont do anything. The manifold and head design are probably your biggest problem.
