Many just use the stock paper element filters and wing it!

But it's not really apples for apples comparing street cars to the V8's because I don't think many of their engines run more then one season.. (Or between crashes for some of the teams) Edited 17/05/12 07:12 PM by Sharp Dressed Panda Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/77949-e85/page/59/#findComment-1239019 Share on other sites More sharing options...
