Zac,
 
This thread brings back memories of trying to sort your weber out over the net and that's how we got to know each other eh mate. I think we both ended up 3" tubes on our webers and wash 'n wear filters. Nice tunes with tubes and they do seem to give a slight lift in performance at the expense of round town economy which is fair enough as you don't fit webers to win an economy run. Also I found that they make the engine a bit crankier when it's cold. Ram tubes also seem to exacerbate the effects of any minor problems ie worn shafts and low fuel level etc. still I wouldn't be without them.

based on my experiences with a single weber:
I had a k&n filter (no ram tubes) for over a year, then I got given some ram tubes. I put them on and the difference was big enough to warrant using crappy $15 finer filter sock filters. and as a result my $120 k&n filter sits unused!
No ram tubes would fit under the k&n. I think with webers or anything for that matter, ramtubes or similar are essential.

What would be the best air filters to put on twin webbers to extract max performance?  I am currently using the ram tubes(short ones) with four air socks.  A mate of mine is using the proper box filters on his twin webber set-up which was prescribed by a guy at the performance shop where he buys his parts from.  Is it true that you don't use the ram tubes with the box type filters?  To me that reduces the effect of fuel/air mixing as I've always thought that the tubes greatly increase the effect of the fuel and air mixing.  This is due to the tubes "tuning" the air flowing into the carbs.  What are the advantages and disagvantages to both?
