The free area of the filter would be more relavent than the filter area wouldn't it?

Mine has Staintunes, DNA stage 2 and a PC.

I just removed the snorkel and de-screened the filter.
The motor is smoother at light throttle and is getting better economy.

Anyone else tried de-screening the filter?
