noticed that my itg filter to back plate connection is very tight and
that there is a seal on the bottom of the filter where it fits to the
back plate. I would imagine if the were any kind of back plate warping
or damage to the seal dirt could get through. The inside of mine has
remained clean so far. But then again my engine is still VERY low mileage
since the rebuild and new itg filter.
Take care

Interestingly, I note that ITG sell backplates in either their normal red
fibre-glass, or alloy...I think I will go for alloy, then no chance of
warping, and they look better too.
