You could probally set up a screen inbetween the two peices. Are screens safe, and do they flow better then a good filter?

You can't DRIVE with that on though, can you? I mean...no filter = death, right???



Don't you need a stand-alone just to be able to not use an MAF? I can't see how people are able to just hook up a cone filter directly to the turbo.

that's for the strip or show only. you cant drive that aroud town all day unless yuo like riskin your engine and turbo being destroyed. at the strip you can get away with running the airhorn without filter and such for max power and boost. but on the street it just isn't worth the rebuild and new turbo your are gonna need after a while.
