Very true. I ran the Weiand on my SU's for a long time.

I detected a loss of midrange power, probably because of the less-controlled
airflow. Unfortunately there isn't enough room inside the foam element to
fit a proper air horn, but you could probably cut the air horns off a stock
air filter base plate and weld them in, if you really wanted to.

I like the look of these more than the ITG's (look a little more
"period"), but use of them does preclude the crankcase breather, and
you'd want to put a "shorty" air horn underneath them, as I think it is
undesireable to run without.
