Well, a high flow air filter will help any car, on a
turbo you could even see quicker spool up, plus it
sounds cool. BUT, there are some things to watch out
for. They will let more dirt in, and on cars with a
MAF, like yours, the oil from the filter can foul the
little wires that tell the engine how much air is
flowing into it. I'd stick with the stock filter on
your car unless it's highly modified. On a stock
engine, you will probably be wasting your money.
