I don't have a TT...but I assume you would just use Fabspeeds filter.

I have a C4S with a tt lid. I moved the fan over and want to know it it's good or bad to funnel the air through the OEM duct to the filter or delete it

Dual air can't hurt! I think Fabspeed is coming out with a dual carbon box...that would be great with a TT lid!!

I have a C4S as well.

Well the left duct lines up with the filter. The othe duct spot is where part of the fan ended up. So just he left can sit right over the filter.

I didn't have to move mine...so I really can't say what is best. R & D it.

rjk911s is infamous around these parts
You probably have thought of this, but why not contact Fabspeed.
