Keep in mind that dewalling is okay but adding a K&N panel filter will get you no real HP but it will allow twice as much dirt etc. Through compared to a good paper filter. pros running the renny generally use the stock intake with a paper filter.

Oh and here is a shitty shot from a meet Saturday night It was my first time at this spot and the lighting was very dim and I forgot my tripod

I was just giving Loggins a really simple immediate mod that actually give a small result. Before I had my CAI (which I just put in this past weekend BTW), I ran the dewall with the K&N and had no issues. I liked the set up.

Yeah the "dewall" and VFAD removal is a good idea. I took a bit further but I run the well tested WIX filter.

Looks good man. So you decided with R magic huh? Cool, now shine your exhaust tips Brasso and ultra fine steel wool works wonders.

I'm just messin' with him, it's not toooooooo bad. But at least if he does it for real it is easily removable if he gets tired of it.
