    I ran a k&n filter on mine. found a short one on summits website, 5" inlet and only 4" long. I ran it without a filter as well and it feels faster without it. I would only really worry about a filter if its going to be driven daily, or in dusty conditions. Im going to make a screen for mine out of metal door screen.

    I have a k&n on mine as well. I am sure it costs a little bit of power but mine is street driven so I felt it was needed.
