Default Bigger Airl filter????

One simple question,

In a turbo set-up does the size of the air filter make a difference??????

Too small of a filter creates a pressure drop and lowers delivered airflow. Higher pressure into the turbo = denser air being compressed and more power with less heating of the intake charge.
