This talk of intake mods got me thinking about my setup. I've got a nice 3" cold air pipe down to the stock SMIC location, but I've been using a POS knock-off brand mushroom style filter. I had wanted to make a velocity stack setup for the track awhile back but never got around to it.
Over the weekend, I pulled the filter to clean it and see what kind of space I've got, and when I went to run water through it, the thing filled up and barely any water came out the other side! Even after it was cleaned with dish detergent, it is very restrictive under the faucet. I can imagine it's pretty restrictive with air too. I've got a 3" velocity stack here, just need to trim it a bit and stick it on, I'll try to get some back to back logs with it. I'll definitely be using it next time I run!

I've seen many race cars using that material for filtration however that's a small filter overall. I was told get the biggest filter possible on there. I see you're gonna jump right to the stack though, so problem solved......as long as you guys don't catch any flying squirrels....
