Default Audi A3 Air Filter

Will a K&N air filter boost engine performance on my 2010 Audi A3 2.0TSI?

I doubt there will be any measurable performance gain. In addition, the risk of contaminating the MAF sensor outweighs any advertised advantages for me.

Default K&N Filter

I replaced the factory filter with a K&N 4 mths ago and have realized a gain in MPG and throttle response. The increase is slight, but will pay off in the long run.

Default K&N Air Filter

I put in a K&N air filter about 6 months ago and I have noticed a gain in fuel economy and a slight gain in throttle response. It is not like adding new performance upgrades, but it is a good long term investment.
