They both have a closed airbox with just the snorkle removed. They both have a Yoshimura slip on. He is running a 150 in one and a 152 in the other. I think you would be closer to 160. Remember dyno jets are different than stock ones.

Title: Re: jetting Post by: crom A zone on October 05, 2008, 08:49:21 PM my end cap is hollowed out its just a crome tip with like 3 inch outlet no screen or nothing lol shots a flame out it now if i am on gas real hardthen get off it just cut fenders today my parts shoul d be in soon ill be messing with it this weekend
Title: Re: jetting Post by: Chevy1500z71 on October 05, 2008, 08:52:22 PM my end cap is hollowed out its just a crome tip with like 3 inch outlet no screen or nothing lol shots a flame out it now if i am on gas real hardthen get off it just cut fenders today my parts shoul d be in soon ill be messing with it this weekend with no endcap, and no airlid, id say a 140 main jet should be about right. when you get your jet kit, you could probably just folow the stage 2 instruction which are for a pipe and intake and then instead of using the 150 main jet that they recommend, go with a 140. Title: Re: jetting Post by: crom A zone on October 06, 2008, 09:33:14 PM i got no box not just no lid
Title: Re: jetting Post by: Chevy1500z71 on October 06, 2008, 09:37:42 PM i got no box not just no lid same thing as far as jetting, only difference is you have to clean your filter every ride lol. i never really understood having no airbox. i built my uncle a blaster with a biger carb and ran it with no box, becasue i couldn't with the 34mm carb, and it was just kind of impractical. Title: Re: jetting Post by: crom A zone on October 07, 2008, 09:29:05 AM its all about looks my freind lol ;) no just kiddin look at race cars they run filter right on top of carb why not have a restricted box or snorkle around it more air plus more fuel equel more power ;D plus it makes me keep the bike out of mud and water i always get looked at funny when its covered in mud lol
Title: Re: jetting Post by: Chevy1500z71 on October 07, 2008, 02:54:16 PM its all about looks my freind lol ;) no just kiddin look at race cars they run filter right on top of carb why not have a restricted box or snorkle around it more air plus more fuel equel more power ;D plus it makes me keep the bike out of mud and water i always get looked at funny when its covered in mud lol lol, race cars have a hood and fender wells. the air is there either way, its just a mater of if you want aitr out of a shielded box, or dirt mixed with air flinging off of your tires lol. im just kiding with you tho, open filters are fine. id just rather a box for when its wet out.
