K&N air filter

I'm thinking of fitting a K&N air filter to my Toyota Auris 1.6 petrol manual 2008. Would it improve performance, affect fuel economy, or affect my insurance?

Not much without further modification and reprogramming of the ECU, and you will have to tell your insurer. Best not to bother.

Decent combination of ride and handling that might suit some people better than a harder sprung Golf or a Civic. A few inches taller than a Golf of Focus so easier to get in and out.
