Thanks for all of your help guys! Is there a need or a great advantage to changing the air box at the same time as the pipes, or is it not a necessary thing to do?

Changing out the airbox and porting or replacing the manifold will give you an extra 'jump' from the bike but it's not necessary.

You don't need to put an airkit on because of pipes. The pipes let you hear the motor the way it should sound. The airkit and jetting is more of a performance thing. Wouldn't hurt to do them both at the same time if that's what you want.<br><br>Post edited by: Musky, at: 2007/04/09 20:44
