People do one of two things:

1) Replace it with a bent piece of aluminum tubing, with Samco (or other brand) silicone gaskets connecting it on both ends.

2) Replace it with a new open end filter element.

then they start the argument about taking hot air into the system....rather than cold air as the trash can does.....
the filter gives you 3bhp more......but warm air loses you about the same.....

I nearly did this with the K&N conical filter.....I didnt and its still as stock...:)
