Default intake

I'm fabbing up an intake for my 2 cam, and was wondering if there's any reason to mount the conical element facing forward, or is it fine tostand it up? I figure the obvious....more bugs will hit it with the element standing up and more surface facing into the wind as opposed to the top of it into the wind, but am interested in any advice. Thanks everyone.

Default RE: intake

I forgot to ask also if there's any benifit to running the breather tubes into the air filter itself, or adding two more small filters to each is more appropriate? Besides the cost of two more filters each time......
