Default Filter or no filter?

at a drag race, would it help our car a bit if we take out the air filter and allow straight flow? Not worried about stuff getting in or anything, just as far as performance, would taking the filter out of the stock box and still using the rest of the system(iceman) just without the filter add a bit of power you think?

I'm not an expert, but I highly doubt it would be much. Maybe 2hp and no significant difference in 1/4 mile time. Expert opinions?

Default Re: Filter or no filter?

When I was at the track.. the filter on my injen flew off (I didn't realize until a couple days later) during a hard shift.. I couldn't figure out why I started running 17's.. then I went back with a new K&N and ran the time in my sig.
