Driving with a deteriorating HKS pod filter element installed, or driving with no filter element at all (for a short trip to get a replacement filter)?
if chunks are getting sucked in take it off for sure, put some pantyhose ov er the hole or use ur imagination.
Grab your mumma's stockings and make your own filter Just don't fold it over more then twoce as will restrict airflow to much and engine will want to stall. 2min job
