Dyno sheet, car, engine, video, whatever! Lots of people can make claims on the internet - Facebook proves that. Show us what you've got!

Welcome to the site btw!

Not long without a filter on that inlet.
Most people will go for a 'hero run' the turn it down for the street.
You better have the fuel delivery situation handled.

This is just my observation, you may as well zip tie a piece of window screen on the intake hole, that thing will not stop sand, dirt and dust, but it's you ride.
and a fine ride it is

@General karthief - I was thinking the same thing about a filter. I'm going to go out on a limb and say that there's an intercooler involved? While dust and stuff wouldn't be stopped by the screen element AND it probably isn't all that great for the supercharger, it looks like maybe there's a filter between the intercooler and the throttle body. If that's the case, the engine itself might be well protected. Maybe there's something that can be done with routing tubing to a pre-charger filter? Something along these lines:



I'd think that would be the ideal situation.

Otherwise, that's a damned nice ride!!

Ya it’s got a front mount intercooler im not going against what you guys are saying on the filter but they claim it’s up to 10 microns of filtration

Ok, lets say as an experiment, now I don't advise doing this but, sweep up a bit of road dirt like you would find on the center line of a two lane city street and sprinkle it in front of the opening where the 'filter' is, I bet money a bunch of that crap gets sucked into that expensive hair dryer you got there. And where is it going?
Example, I know of a street driven Roush mustang with a blower and a 10 micron screen, it has 30k on the clock and the cylinder walls looked like someone used 300 grit sand paper on the cylinder walls, piston sides and the blower needed rebuilt.
All I'm saying is I would put a real filter on that thing that's all,

I don't want to sound like I'm beating you up or anything, but that screen filter isn't good to 10 microns. If I've pulled the correct part from their site, they say it's good to 40. Personally, I'd ditch it and go with a more traditional filter of some sort to protect all the money that's invested under that hood. I might use it for dyno pulls and maybe racing, but I wouldn't use it for the street.
