See plenty of people not using airfilters and such just some big fat trumpets out the side of the block, just how bad is it for the engine doing that?

 

Depends: on a 2-stroke STOOOOOOOPID idea...

on a 4-stroke depends: if you don't use the car or bike in dusty conditions, offroad etc. etc. you'll get away with it. I do

 

Was thinking tripple webber carbs on a V6 capri for road use myself

 

I wonder what happens to say a bee if it gets sucked in? Instant death and cremation!

 

thats pretty fucking cool if ya ask me

But how much damage could a bee possiably do to an engine?

 

mates got a 106 on boddies he runs it without socks on as it looses horses when he does..... only prob he has had is a trumpet fallin off lol

then again he just in the middle of a complete rebuild of the car and its only gonna see very dry sunny roads...

 

i run tb's and a filter dont understand why ppl dont if you have a good filter on there i run an itg it dont sound any different

 

At the moment mine just runs with my fibreglass trumpets (saves weight lol )



But when competing it has a direct fed filtered fiberglass airbox

 

i got itg's on my 40's its a tiny bit louder without them but id rather be safe than sorry

 

Just fitted 10cm deep K and N's on mine, was only using the trumpets before

 

I use them on a sixties Triumph racer wich looks like shit with filters on

 

I run mine with pipercross, filters and its surprising just how much shit they
do collect, i prefer the look of just trumpets, but i dont want the crap going
into my engine

 

Thats Matt's rallye in them pics is'nt it????????

 

Im running itg comp socks on my twin 40s for everyday use and lost no hp what so ever

 

yeah thats what he called on some boards otherwise known as Messer

 

always runs filters,,, there is NO reason to run without them

 

i dont use them

 

I use oval the ITG jobbies, its not worth not running them. In fact you have more to loose.

 

I used to run ITG filter on this mi16 309,only took them off every now and again.

did'nt notice any differance apart from noise was much better

I loved that car,3 bottom ends I went through ,had a nasty habit of taking it to 8000rpm in third now and again anyway got a limiter fitted on the 4th engine




I luuuuuuurve carb's and TB's,must get some more 1 day

 

wanna have filters really, especially with the summer dust now about..

though ours are currently open, need some monster socks to get over the trumpets.
