Default I'm not being a tool about anything.

thought I could get answers here due to multiple people running the setup.

didn't expect a lurker to chime in with a unhelpful comment.

AW is a forum to ask questions right?

Default I'll chime in as soon as I can get some seat time in it...

I worked 10 hours yesterday and 8 more today. I've only put about 6 miles on it, and all of those were in heavy traffic. I like it so far!

Default Re: They take the conservative approach...>>

sorry if this is off topic, but has ne1 dynoed the TT w/o the air filter and box to see if it was lowering (significantly)horsepower? maybe we are spending $$$ on intakes we dont need?

Yes. The dyno said quit being a jackass and put the air filter back on.

Default An alternaive intake has little to no restriction...>

A stock box uses this. Flow improvents have been documented when you lose the box. Your choice.

Default I can only be so sure.. but yeah I'm sure.

If my reply was rude, it wasn't meant to be. I was simply clarifying what I was asking for.

Default I was thinking k&n over stock, but who knows

what APR thinks. I still think it weird they use the stock airbox.
