u can, its a fire guard incase it backfires into the carb like if the intake valves open to early , its ur choice, the chances are that it wont happen but if it does ya got a fire on ur hands, i dont run it and i donno anyone else that runs one with a k&n

That is another screen for crap that doesn't get caught in the foam part. When i put my K&N on i left it out. I just put an outerwear on the k&n for smaller particles like sand or something.

I don't think it reduces too much air flow. Try it with it and then try it without it. See what works for you.
