That trap speed is a very good indication that the car is still making the stated power levels.

I wasn't saying anything about the Filters being on or off, but about the front Bumper being off. On a strip is one thing because the car is moving, not on a dyno where its sitting in one spot. Yes, I see blower fans, but those are focused for radiator/intercooler cooling.

Look at the BP kit. He has just one filter on there in a crammed location. These two filters will be just fine.

Right they do, not questioning that. But what happens when the vacuum is greater than the volume of air that's able to fill the space since there's not a direct opening? That's the only thought.

Thanks, Tony

Of course, not commenting about the flow of the pipes Tony, just curious about the placement of filters in terms of available airflow.
