Default fbody procharger airfilter

I have a d1sc procharger and wanted to know what air filter setup you are running on your fbody. If you have any pics that would be great. Iam also useing epp front mount innercooler as you can see in the pic the bov should be faceing toward the engine.
Thanks in advance

On the EPP FMIC kit the way it was sent to me it didn't work I'm using an F head unit but it shouldn't matter. The race valve location was obstructing where the filter needed to go. I took the uppipe from the IC-TB section to a welder and had him clock the race-valve location about 90' from the original location and problem solved.

Do yall think the stock intake hat with the big filter chokes the procharger?

I know for a fact it does! I gained like 90rwhp with my old P1SC/ 346 combo by removing the hat and (big) filter.

I also know for a fact that the smaller filter is way more of a restriction than the big 9" one. I gained ~1.5psi just going from the small stock filter to the bigger one with the stock fbody hat.

I don't know about the filter but I had a inlet elbow fabricated to fit on my procharger and it looked nice but it choked my F1A down to only 13PSI and no size pulley could get the boost any higher. These things are very sensitive.
