What kind of air filters?
 
I was just wondering what kind of filters you guys are running on your set-ups? I know I wont have a lot of room on mine and was just wondering. I swore I saw someone somewhere running a foam cylinder green filter. I got a cone but it has a pretty big opening and my turbo is pretty small. I was thinking alot of people use wire mesh stuff too, but i just wanted to see what esle people are using.

that new engine will be needed a lot sooner than you think if you try running 5psi with no extra fuel mods. think of it this way, your engine is getting forced about 40-45more hp over stock and is getting the same fuel pressure as stock. thats like running your car stock and using a stock regulator to cut the fuel a third of the stock pressure and takin it for a run.

I go with filter. Dirt comes in, scratches the cylinder walls, etc.
