i like Teague but didnt like the strainer. It has all of those little wing nuts around the top that locks it down. looks like it might leak, i thought someone said to stay away from those type strainers?

I would recommend our standard 5" sea strainer (that will not leak if tightened)! We can build to any bug configuration and will strain out any material that would potentially harm your systems. We will build with allen heads or you can opt for wing nuts. Our screen design will allow a bit of sandy water to flow through, but will hold can cease any blockage!

This is my own personal opinion, but i do not trust the fine micron sand strainers. They are an awesome and clean piece, but i feel they can build up with debris and potentially block your water flow.

Either way, it is always a good idea to put a strainer of a force fed system. Especially an intercooler, because of if it cracks, you now have a engine full of water from a melt down.

If anyone has any questions please feel free to give us a call! -Eric
