    It has a screen on it.

    I love it. Mismatched and all, I think an is lip would make it more aggressive though.
    I think this winter I'll be able to paint the mismatched shit and I'd like to do eruo molding and a lip.

    245/45/17 in the back. They came with the wheels, there isn't too much stretch going on.

    No dyno numbers yet, all street tuned including the timing.

        Seriously, a screen? A filter filters particles down to the microns, a screen filters millimeters at best. Large items will definitely trash up your turbine before it enters the engine but the real killer is dust and sand. It'll clog up your fuel system and score up you cylinder walls. Bye bye engine.

        P.s. I'm not trying to be a dick but I can't tell you how many boosted Honda kids I see driving around with no filter like it's the thing to do.
