Default They do.

Stock air filter works fine in most cases, especially if you still have a K03/K04 turbo.

Default They do, the Carbonio is more for looks than anything else.

stick with the OEM drop in filter. Oiled filter elements are known to foul the MAF. You won't gain anything by installing a different intake or element on the 1.8T. If we are talking about the 2.8..different story.
