how many bends in that ducting for the IK?
that needs to be as straight as possible for good airflow
remove the headlight and have the ik there with a nice straight pipe for when its on the track. |

I'd concentrate on properly preparing the car Dan, as in tyre pressures, checking brakes all round (pads/free movement, full operation and maybe changing fluid), nut and bolt check and all of the car, and a safety check (belts/harnesses, seat secure, pedals secure etc etc) |

You should get more gain against the clock with breaks an tyres than you will with engine power gain from the air fillter. |
