Default How much power?

How much power does cutting out the plastic under the air filter which covers the front of the radiator and cutting out the foam in the front bumper add? Would they work together? The air should go through the scoops in the bumper go up the radiator and ram in the filter.

I wouldn't even bother with possibly screwing up your airbox.

its not worth the time and effort or the pain you have to deal with in replacing or cleaning your filter constantly

yeah I wouldn't do it unless you are adding a CAI kit like FTRA or somthing.

the filter does get dirty a lot quicker.. fortunately they are cheap to replace.
