I know that you need to keep it plumbed in with an AFM, but without one you can just leave it open with a small filter on it.
My question is: I did a search and someone was saying that they lost some boost when they left it open with a little filter on it. Do I need to route it into my piping so that the turbo is operating more efficiently and not bleeding boost? If it is leaking, I also imagine that it would have a negative effect on spool times. Ideas?
