Many just use the stock paper element filters and wing it! Edited 17/05/12 02:58 PM by IH8TOADS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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 Share on other sites More sharing options...
