If its to increase power your are wasting your time.

Make sure u have it taking in cold air and
the piping is shielded as well as turbo from
engine heat otherwise you will increase your
IAT and go backwards with power goals.

Drift filters are good and legal, cheap and
easy to get.

Just remove the intake snorkel from inside the drivers side guard. It will make it noisier but will still draw cold air and will not sacrifice filtering ability
