    Calmini with or without Elbow mod?

    I just purchased a Calmini filter for my beloved VX and am wondering if I should remove the airbox elbow when I do the install. I've heard a few people say that neither mod really gives much of an increase in horsepower or gas mileage (as compared to exhaust mods) and that removing the elbow allows much hotter air to enter the engine, which over time could be cause excessive wear. I know a number of folks have had one or more of these mods for some time now. Any advice or problems to report?
