Ramair filter arrived...

[barbagris]

Well it's fitted for now. I'm still waiting to hear from Wayne Tripp about the backing plate with the velocity stacks he developed for the Pipercross filter, and the air scoop.

Excellent - I nearly took one off him - but then Colin started on the ITG/RAMAIR thing. I wasn't going to cut the claw. Of couse - Now I have Les's air-claw -

Now maybe somebody ingenious can find a way to use this


Or anything from here http://www.reverie.ltd.uk/product_list.php?group=A PLEN

Mr Steel, I notice that you have drilled out your silencers, care to advise how they sound and work - plus method please?

Something like this with a filter element inside might be cool.

Have to be a **** site bloody cheaper too. Like this http://www.carbonmods.co.uk/Products/carbon-fibre-airbox-ram-air.aspx http://www.carbonmods.co.uk/downloads/airbox-ram-air-Dimensions.pdf

The airbox can be used either as a conventional airbox; mounted onto throttle bodies carbs via its universal base plate with an inline cone type filter fitted on the inlet or in a 'ram air' configuration; with the box fitted through the bonnet with the inlet facing the direction of travel, increasing intake air pressure. In this configuration the airbox would be fitted over the air filters (like the Pipercross or ITG) which it is designed to do perfectly.

They sound a little louder and deeper, but still not loud. The bike does seem to run a little better, but it hasn't been dynoed so there are no real numbers to back that up.

I used a 2 5/8" hole saw that I used to build the plate for my Pipercross filter.

Drilled the outer plate and removed the short pipe inside. Then drilled the second plate, and removed the baffle in it.
A couple of days after drilling the first 2 plates, I went back and drilled a 1 3/8" hole through the plate below the perforated tube.

The cat is still deeper in but won't be so easy to remove.

Thanks Steel, I will take a look.

So was I when I pointed at Reverie. F*ckin' stoopid prices - Unless of course you're building a race vehicle.

 

[Steel]

I'm glad to know y'all were joking. I looked at them prices and thought maybe I'm just a cheap bassturd, but there was no way I was paying that.
