Racing Beat Duct Screen?
I JUST BOUGHT A REVI INTAKE ABOUT A WEEK AGO. HAVENT INSTALLED IT YET CUZ IM WAITING FOR MY DUCT TO COME IN...JUST OUT OF CURIOUSITY HAS ANYONE THOUGHT ABOUT PUTTING SOME KIND OF SCREEN IN FRONT OF THE DUCT SO DOESNT PICK UP BIG DEBRIS?

Seen it....
It is already divided into small openings - nothing over an inch could enter, then the Z shaped airpath would knock down any velocity the debris has, leaving the filter to do it's job.

It will filter any large debris - dogs, cats, soda cans, you name it, and I bet it filters it.

Geez, you guys sure are hard on a guy who ask a fair question. I have found that a screen placed in front of the intake works very. I tried several different screens and found the one inch chicken wire to work the best.
kewl--dont pay no attention to these guys--it was a fair question they are just screwing around.. In the back of my little mind i was thinking of cutting the grill to fit the intake and using a screen---havent got the guts to do it yet.

It will have to be a lot smaller than 1" to get past the OE grille openings 
It does pick up a lot of sand and other small stuff that the cars in front of you, wind, etc. kick up. You have to clean the filter quiet a bit more often with the duct on than off. It funnels everything right into the airbox.
