do you think it'll give any sort of worthwhile gains?
I'd imagine its there for a reason.... i'd think that reason out weighs the potentional minimal if nay gains

I doubt it does anything what so ever....
the gauze hardly limits air flow and its ure last chance to stop large objects being sucked in i'd keep it in tbh...

if your real anal about flow especially on turbo engines worth removing it and cutting down the colling fins but no gains unless the whole intake is adjusted to suit. as ste says very easy to break
