There is a difference between turbulent air and pulsed air, the underside of a 916 tank in conjunction with the airbox is specially designed to use the pulsing to help produce power by way of acting as a Helmholtz resonator, something Shazaam! did a great post on years ago.

Not sure what you think your air useage is

here are a few questions that may help you answer that

A, How many cc's of petrol do you use in a race
B, What air/fuel mixture do you run
c, How long is the race in minutes
