    I don't like the idea for street driving. But if you're at the track then there's not much shit that can be picked up and go through the throttles. I probably would just run socks anyways.

    Run socks.....ur a dumb ass if u dont....and run socks on track......if u hit the dirt etc bang suck goes in every thing.

    Its not like ur losing any performance by running socks.....and why not run them so u can see how shiny they are when the bonnet is closed all the time?

    Yep, a bad idea. You'd be amazed at the crap that gets sucked down an engine without filters of some sort.

    you do lose a little power through any filter.. on the road it is a good idea to run them.. on the track (circut i mean) i would.. but at the drags.. i wouldn't.. no need at the drags..

    i ran mine without anything at the drags..

    the plate is a recent addition.. cos the bottom of the filters were getting sprayed with dirt and what not from the road.. and was grubbing up the bottom of the filters..

    Here in the U.S. there are alot of idiots running ITB's with no filtering system what so ever. just plain stupid IMO.
