usually it entails adding a few holes to the box allowing it to suck in more air. i added 4 , 2" holes to mine.

 

1. anymore pictures of this. If someone can maybe post your pictures as your doing it.
   
   They are removing the auto tune and installing the FCE and BMC modding the box and installing Ivan's map.

sorry about all the other crap. found this on ridersforums

 

yeah mine is just like pictured above but i did 2 slightly larger holes on each side. also removed that plastic pan that sits under the filter. its held on with like 7-8 screws.

 

what will removing the bottom pan do? I thought the box was closed/sealed so when you are at speed it produced some pressure in the air box (like the SRAD system from Suzuki)

 

honestly i dont know what it will do but i didnt like all those screws in there so i removed it, drilled the holes then it was dyno tuned .

 

personally paul i think if it was me, i would leave the airbox alone. just my 2 cents...

 

yeah its not a drastic diff or anything. i did it just to do it and knew i was getting dyno tuned so figured why not. i def wouldnt mess with the airbox without plans of having either a auto tuner or getting a custom tune done.

 

Thanks guys from what I can tell the airbox has this "internal panel for absolutely no reason, I would love to know why its there as I don't see that it can perform any real function as it is completely sealed on the other side, just dead weight if you ask me!!

 

it probably helps smooth the air flow into the filter out or something. who knows. i didnt like all the screws holding it in so it came out! lol..

 

looking at it more carefully you can see the lip just by the large inlet doesn't go all the way across, I wonder if its some sort of moisture trap?? It must have a purpose or is it like Paris Hilton .......... completely pointless.

 

im leaning towards paris hilton lol!

 

The lower chamber is a helmholtz resonator.

Some explanation... Thunder Products - Performance carburetor and clutching for snowmobiles, motorcycles and ATVs.

 

learn something new every day

 

just a question do they make new velocity stacks for our bikes. And does any one know if it would help out the bike any.

 

looks like the screws would be prevented from entering the engine by the air filter.

 

so the way I read that is that the internal "resonator" should be left in and the box should remain sealed for peak performance??

 

i dont think it makes much a difference either way.. probably more of a sound thing than anything.

 

X1glider (the genius that got away) said that on the n1k and third gen z1k modifying the airbox would reduce midrange torque.

 

Looks like abaffle for the clean air induction.

 

yeah i dunno. i took mine out a while back and its running pretty good.
