I've seen the results of stockings used on MX bikes - sucked in and mass destruction

we are thinking chicken mesh over the inlet then 2 stroke motorbike air filter or something similar and then a big hose clamp around the outside to lock it all in place

well this thing has finally gotten to the stage of test drive around the block :driving:
no major issues, bit of tuning and some minor tweaks and it should be a good thing! had 7 psi and was feeling very promising so the brother wants to see what more boost can do!
