I fitted mine a couple of days ago, £100 is a great price if its new and the K&N's wont be any different to the Carbonio filter  :smiley:

....Carbonio come with a Pipercross filter which is better than a K&N and better than the stock paper filter but not as good as the ITG filter which costs nearly 60 squid but is the dog's.

I think you should for that price you cant refuse! I have found a slight improvement in sound and performance but nothing to go to town about, I expect more gains from it when I have mine remapped!  :laugh:
