Do screens really hinder performance?

Yeah run it without any filter and it's gonna give you an explication for when that ssac turbo fails, one day or if you're lucky, one week from now.

More surface area in a cone filter than a flat piece of screen covering the turbo inlet.

im rokin a some of the nice mesh from lowes with a t-bolt clamp. i ran it without a filter for about 3 months and no problem and i dont notice any difference in anything. i just decided to put the screen on when my friends turbo made friends with a rock and ate up the turbine. i'll post some pics of it as soon as i take my camera to his house. lol.

When I ran open or screen vs my air filter, i noticed my boost came on a lot faster and (harder?) I always blew my couplers off more when i didn't run a filter. weird. I always take the filter off at the track.
