    Engine : 3.0 V6 CDTi Z30DT

    Year : 2005

    Is there much of a benefit fitting a K&N or Pipercross panel filter over a standard one on a V6 CDTi?

    Very unlikely
    Refer to the documents provided by the manufacturers to see what they claim

    I have one fitted to my 1.8 SRi.

    Think it has given me around 30BHP more.

    Seriously though, it does seem to run smoother, especially when pulling away.
