I totaly 100% agree with the last poster on this. I have been a mechanic all my life starting with 15 years in the military on every thing from little 1 cylinder gas engines to steam piston and turbine engines to a deisel engine with pistons big enough to have a party on the top of. I went to a short school in the navy for the steam engines but learned all the rest of it at the school of hard knocks and from the wise old mechanics that I sometimes worked for. All you will learn in mechanic school nowdays is how to be a know it all that nobody will want to work around and plus it will cost you a fortune when you could be out spending that money on tools and building a career. Now to your question. I don't think any power increase you get from getting rid of the bowl will be enough to make a difference but I do get rid of them because I can't stand cleaning them. I put a ball valve with a handle on it in it's place and a regular in line filter on. It works better but I don't know about more powerful. As far as the air filter if that is all you are gonna use it for is pulling then Just take it off an put a K&N on it but if you are gonna use it for real work at all keep the oil bath. There isn't a more efficient air filter made today. I have the oil bath and a K&N on top just as a precleaner to keep the dust from plugging my oil bath so fast. Some people think it's a waste of time but it works for me.
