I have seen a lot of tests of cone filter against stock filter and/or
aftermarket filter panels. The Cone filter are almost always placed in a hot
spot, of course it steals power.

A good place to put a big cone filter on a 5k is right below the cis unit.
You have to move the oilcooler a bit and steer the hot air from the oil
cooler away from the filter.
