Splash guard for air filter

[SavageDarwin]

I have been looking with not much luck for one, made my own out of a popcan. Cut top off and folded sharp edge in and flat with needle nose players and secured it by a small hole for allen screw for the air filter cap to go thru. I kept looking to find a nice looking one and found. https://www.hpiracing.com/en/part/101827 I guessing the whole thing wouldn't fit but what about the outer snorkel part?

I haven't seen that before, be interested to see your results if you try it. One thing that jumps out at me though, the airflow through that can has got to be awful. You functionally take away 95% (or more) of the filter's surface area.

For a demonstration, take a straw and put in your mouth, pinch your nose and breathe thru the straw only.... short of breath yet??? think about your poor
not to mention the change in A/F ratio...

I would think it can't be too bad as it is a stock part for a trophy truggy with a 4.6. As long as the tube is larger than the carb opening.

If splash guard is what you're looking for then the Outerwears pre-filter would make a great addition. These are very popular among the large scale RC crowd and work very well.
