The change would be minimal in a turbo car, if at all notifiable, you are more likely to hear a little more induction noise under boost. That said for a stage 1 the factory filter is fine, but if you feel the need a drop in K&N panel filter is a good mod. Best thing for more exhaust sound is a high flow muffler to replace resonator or go for a proper cat back system from Miltek or Cobra

Thanks for your reply mate and my bad not exhaust noise correct. Any idea where to get a K&N air filter? I typed it into ebay and lots of options came up...

Also in terms of exhaust sound what do you reckon is the cheapest option. Only willing to pay around £200

You'll need to goto k&n.com to find the part number first in their part finder... Then plug that number into ebay.

For exhaust 200gbp at best would get you the centre muffler/resonator chopped out and replaced with a cheap straight through peice. May or May not sound a bit droney at Highway speeds. I'm unfamiliar with 2.0tfsi but my TT 3.2 we used a 450mm magnaflow straight through resonator to take care of drone while increasing volume. (aka tampa mod).

Depending on year of your A5 I think this might be your filter here
