You lose a considerable amount of power having it like that mate. There is going to be a lot of heat soak from the rad straight into your induction.

Get the enclosed when you can afford it, the performance alone is worth it, and it's audible at the right revs ;)

i agree i had mine there and now its in the inner wing performance gain is very noticeable

i will doing the open cone in to the inner wing eventually i gave it a good rag round today and suffered no heat soak at all its sat very low you can't see that in the pic
