I have just replaced the brake pads on my ES and would like to know what some of you feel is the best break in method for them.  I pretty well used the factory recommendation originally and have not really been satisfied with the performance.

Also, I am interested to know about how much manifold pressure is lost using a good air filter system versus an unrestricted fresh air system (no filters).  I am building an alternate air system for my IO550G that will flow unfiltered air and I would like to know what improvement, if any, I can expect in the numbers.

Thanks for your help.
