    And with my topswap setup which will work better?
    Id do open cone. The s/c would be louder open coned, since the noise isn't muffled in the fender.

    Hmmm, maybe I'll just slap the cone filter on there then after the swap. Are there any cons to replacing the FWI with the open cone?

    think of it this way...

    Your fwi sucking in air only from the fender, through bends in piping with slightly colder temps, blower heats up air anyway.

    OR

    You run right off the throttle body, completely non-restrictive, no bends or anything, air getting pulled in is warm, blower heats up air anyway.
