Getting back to more important matters, lol, does the incorrect orientation affect performance, etc in any way, shape or form??

When Robin's car was dynoed there were minimal differences with regard to filter orientation.

Well RR got clarification that airflow should be like this
But on mine air is going thru the inside of the cone filter, so in total opposite of the flow diagram above

....The orientation was discussed earlier in this thread and I also corrected my original first post accordingly. It should be as the diagram and as 'conventional' to cone filters.
Performance is not significantly effected by filters being orientated the wrong way around according to both Forge and my JKM dyno runs.
IT'S VERY IMPORTANT NOT TO CORRECT YOUR FILTER ORIENTATION ONCE DEBRIS HAS BEEN COLLECTED - APPLY TO FORGE FOR REPLACEMENT DUE TO THEIR ERROR IN EARLY INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS.

Somehow still works and performs tho. Side filter doesn't really do much judging by how clean it looked

....I'm not sure that the relative lack of debris in the side filter means that negligable air is being taken in. Certainly the volume of air will be less due to position but I suggest that perhaps more of the debris flies past, but I'm just thinking aloud about this aspect.
