Speed Density - Air filter off the TB or in the box?
For the 90-92 guys... Would it be better to just leave the air filters alone and run that restrictive factory box or yank all of that out and run a universal filter on the end of the throttle body? I'm kind of torn as you'd get a lot of hot air running right off the tb - but the factory box is so thin... What do you guys all do?

Modify the stock box to use a bigger air inlet and duct it inot the fender.
Or build some type of cold air kit for it.
Either one fo those choices is alot better then the simple filter stabbed on the end of the TB.

U merely misunderstood what I posted :-P lol
Yes true, I fubared there.
Your better bet is to keep the airbox and open up the baffles under the filters and swap in quality filter replacments.
