If your rev counter is for a 4 cylinder engine it wont show the correct reading.

When doing hack, oh sorry should read: When changing the airfilter you should find a way to restore the crankcase depression. Engine will lose some 3hp if you dont have a proper vacum in the crankcase. Then taking the loss of the "fan force feeder" into the account, you're losing power when switching to a "racing airfilter". believe i know, with 20 years of A-series tuning under my belt.

@Tim2cv

check that inlet manifold is not leaking, this can cause high idle and prevent revving as it leans mixture off.

my 2cv ran best with standard airbox especially if the standard intake was fed from the air cowling/fan as its a kind of low pressure supercharger!

I also found that I couldnt improve on standard exhaust apart from a side exit/different rear section, first section must be standard though.
