Pros:

2) Increased power on Low, Mid and High RPM range.
3) Lower gas consumption. If I don't go over 3,000 RPM.
Cons:
1) Since the response is great, I get tempted to go faster than usual so sometimes I consume too much gasoline . Not to mention that I also go over the speedlimit . Other than that, I don't see a downside to it yet.
Actual picture of my filter:
More info on the filter:

I don't know already. Have 2 or 3 mods that might affect my calculations. But when I first installed it, I noticed a slight drop on the consumption after the 2nd week (the first 2 weeks I ran the car hard because I liked the response).

Hey Ken (lol same name as me)
Anyway, I just checked my engine and it seems like it is pretty much the same layout as my 1.2L(L12A) Jazz.
Is your K&N kit state that it'll only fit the 1.4L models? Cos I was thinking of just changing the filter, however looking at the picture of your engine compartment, it seems it is exactly the same layout as my 1.2, so it's got me intrigued.

Ordered the K&N panel filter for the '04 1.5L Jazz. 1st shipment to Australia sitting in port so will be available in a couple of weeks.
Always had good experiences with K&N panel filters on previous bikes and cars.
Can't see why the K&N pod filter kit wouldn't fit the 1.2L. Just that the 1.2L Jazz isn't sold in a lot of markets (UK & South Africa from memory).

K&N Part number for the panel filter is 33-2872.
The pod kit is 57-0602. Installation instructions: http://www.kandn.com/instructions/57-0602.pdf.

Only other option from K&N is a pod filter.
