So, I have Pettit's K&N cold air intake for my twin turbo setup. What is a better alternative then?

In addition to that, I dont believe that many of us drive our FDs on dirt roads, so dust under the car isnt really an issue.

I have to respectfully in part disagree with your comments on the basis of looking at filtration that is done on more extreme setups. All you have to do is think of 4WD vehicles and why they have the systems that they do. I think your correct to a certain point but your far from telling the person primergrey that he is just wrong.
