The baffle thing is new to me, the custom box around a open filter
element blows my mind though.  Why not just get a K&N to drop in?  all
you do is remove then replace the airbox.  I cant believe that it will
flow that much better with a cone  element.  Make a duct to the stock
box, thats what makes sense to me.
