Not sure how many CFMs a shop vac pulls, but at school we made a flow bench for a much smaller engine just using the suction of a shop vac. The cabinet for the flow bench was just particle board and lexan with a nice seal at all the joints. I can't imagine it's much harder than making a sub enclosure, but you'd need a vacuum source. I somehow doubt that the shop vac would work for the 3.3 boxer 6

Some of the new Ford and Holden (Australia) cars come with a cone filter type design, BUT it is sealed within a box that runs to the fender well. I'm going to do some research into fitting one of those puppies into the SVX. Then it'll be cold air induction with a HUGE surface area filter... YEEHAWWW!!!

I know several members have pipes running from their MAF into the hole that leads to the fender well. They've also cut out some of the plastic shield underneath the car to help unrestrict airflow... I guess.
At any rate, it *sounds* really neat.

Deruvian is correct. This site gives the same detail about the K&N 0940 cone filter:K&N 0940

air filter
I just had the air intake filter put in from dayles Motor sports Warehouse. What are the problems with this and does anyone have pictures of the heat shield install you are talking about. Does performance go down without it and what other problems could occur. Thanks. Bill
