What's the MPG like? Can I use chip fat and veggie oil? What about LPG?

Why not ask BioBongo who made the post?
Can't see any problem as long as there is adequate through-flow - may need changing more often though :?

Only problem I can think of is that it's going to sucking in warm air from the engine bay rather than cool air from the front.

If you need the room there I reckon the standard air filter could be moved to under the bonnet with a bit of messing about.

I looked a doing it so that I could fit the Eberspacher there.
