1) vent filter, there's normally a line that goes from the valve cover to the OEM intake; when you put a cone filter this normally goes out with the OEM intake hence you have to put on a breather filter

2) The heat wrap is adhesive aluminium paper.

Indeed ! All that weight redux paid off though as I got into the final of the first venue and ran a 9:47 in the 1/8th mile.

Perhaps the difference between you winning and losing was the fact that you didn't weight redux yourself. Just joking. :P
What's worse than one rhaat? Two.
