Default Velocity stack with a screen ???

Where can I buy a screen that replaces the air filter for the Procharger head unit? What are the pros and cons of doing so? I recall a member here doing this on his white C5 with a F2 Procharger setup.

This would be for a C5 with forged 347/F1C procharger.

Thanks in advance.

Yeah, I hear ya. I've seen pics of the screen though and it looks like it wouldnt let much of anything through besides more air

KP, I thought I read somewhere that you were going to run the screen as well?

I have ran a screen a couple times, didnt pick me up any so I leave the air filter on all the time, the dustbowl tracks I usually race at are pretty bad in the summer so its best for me to leave a filter on there.

What I did was cut apart one of my wife's kitchen strainers and the half sphere shape was perfect to clamp over the inlet on the blower Its not a bellmouth though, but I did see a nice screen/bellmouth on a F1R mustang and the owner said it came from procharger.
