Default remove the airbox
can you remove the tube from the airbox to the turbo, but leave the airbox there because the o2 Sensor or would it suck stuff into the turbo.

Do you propose leaving the front of the turbo open, allowing it to intake unfiltered air?

I think installing a smaller filter is going to be counter productive in your plan.

Several people will gut the intake tube which is what you are talking about. also you can do a bhaf which is a new air filter and tubes pretty cheap to do.
