Why? I only use mine on the track so don't intend to fit a filter, gets in the way of the air gettin in!

 

cement dust is good for your engine right? :blush:

I was told I didn't need one, which I thought was a bit odd and as you all seem to agree I better go shopping for a filter!

 

Anyone know where I can get one to fit on to the TBs?

someone quite recently found out first hand why its not a good idea to run without timing belt covers, this is much along the same lines!

 

you need a backplate (usually universal and cut to suit) and a suitable filter, plenty about.

I got told I'd go blind if I kept playing with myself but didn't believe it. Yeah sure my eyes are worse than a few years back but it was worth it.

That reply is so good that I might just have to nick it and use it in my signature :wacko: (you will be quoted of course ;) )

Ive got a couple of pots on my old Beemer block that look like the rocky mountains due to having no filters on the carbs. Thats a pure race car but it doesnt really excuse it from sucking in half a gravel trap when things go wrong. Hence why i have a very rare Hartge numbered block which is now bugger all use for making the car move. :)
