You can't have both lol

Open Air filter = Noise

Induction Kit = Performance

For an 1.0L you would be safer off with an open air filter tbh.

You will see next to no increase in performance with an induction kit on a 1.0L

For the price you would be safer off settling with a cheap air filter.

For a 1.0 I would just put a cheap universal on there.
For example;

or

well one thing is to just go all out and clean the bay up thats the best place to start then paint the rocker cover and with the air filter and strut brace it would look good enough dont waste too much money on the 1.1 engine tho, when i had my first car 1.3 fiesta i spent a bit fitting zetec s bumpers/alloys lowering springs but i dont think i ever even cleaned my engine bay definitely didnt buy anything to make it look better just didnt see the point, your first car should look nice without spending shit loads of money on "performance bits" that wont do anything

I cleaned my engine bay with WD-40, works a treat. Then i put an ECU cover on to neaten it up a little as mine is a mk2. Then if you want to take it furthur, you can paint the rocker cover, add a strut brace and polish up metal components.

No it won't fit your 1.0, that is for 1.4/1.6 saxo engines, your throttle body is virtical so it won't fit.
