Title: Re: what filter Post by: TRX450R_Racer on August 10, 2006, 11:45:24 AM I use the Sparks billet ring with a UNI filter. The UNI by itself tends to pop off because of the slight taper on the end of the cage. The sparks filters have a track record for coming a prt at the seem. I had 2 of them do that and have read a lot of poasts about them coming a apart. The Sparks billet ring locks the UNI in there very tight. I haven't seen the Twin Air set up or the Pro Design. I wouldn't suggest an open air box. I would either get a K&N or EHS lid.

Title: Re: what filter Post by: TRX450R_Racer on August 10, 2006, 03:27:12 PM I used to have the HRC lid. I didn't like how dirty my air box got. The HRC lid will be fine. I would run an outerwear around the filter if you use the open lid. An HRC lid would be better than an open box because it protects the filter from water.

Title: Re: what filter Post by: UncleRico on August 17, 2006, 08:19:49 AM I run a K & N High Flow air filter. They say it ups the flow to 881cfm from 548cfm.
I like it, and I run the HRC box with it. The problem with the HRC box is that it has that gap that allows dirt to enter the box. So I have to clean and oil the filter after each ride. It can be high maintenance. Title: Re: what filter Post by: Fox17 on August 17, 2006, 10:34:39 AM I run a K & N High Flow air filter. They say it ups the flow to 881cfm from 548cfm.
