Maybe Vengeance can develop a 5.5-6.0” intake (perhaps using metric sizes) with integrated bell mouth that is still covered by a gigantic filter. I guess the market demand isn’t huge…just a few of us crazies lol…
It is definitely a risk to run with no filter. I've had some belts explode while using it as well. The MAF used to freak out on mine, to the point where I had a separate tune for it. The current engine runs much better with it and I can use the same tune.

From what I'm told, they might offer this new intake to those that want it, but there won't be any filter. Just a massive 8" bellmouth. It probably needs to be sold with a disclaimer if they do.
