What are you gents using to connect your air filters to the compressor housings, are there cheaper or better options than the "uncrushable" type that avonbar sell?

you can buy an air filter that fits straight on to the turbo, that's another option. Best 1/4 mile 13.2 seconds @116 mph

I did a similar thing to below and found the silicone hose sucked in quite a bit on boost, be careful of that as you will be choking the flow :)

If the filter was sucking in a lot, that surely points to a restrictive filter?
