Without trying to sound stupid but...I always thought the purpose of an enclosed filter was to keep the air going into the enigne cooler...are there any gains to be had from having one on a turbo/intercooler engine?

Fella I know just had his sierra cossie RR'd and they noticed something wasn't right, took off his BMC and it free'd up over 80bhp!

So if you plan on tuning the engine a bit, just bare in mind they can start to restrict the engine!

what you need air filters for 
no filters less restriction = more power

heard good things about bmc cda
but on a high powered engine cone filters should be fine.
