Well after some reading about the air box mod I decided that I was going to do it and see for myself if it was worth it or not.
After cutting the opening and re-installing it I am VERY HAPPY! It sounds better and the seat of the pants dyno says it has a little more power. Seems smother though out the RMP range too. Also when I hit second the front wheel came off the ground. Now it could of just came off the ground because I was giving it all she had to test it out, but no the less the mod sure as heck didn't take any power away. Even if in reality the HP has no change the sound change that it made it worth it. It had a nice deeper sound! The mod bug has bitten me! Time for an exhaust mod next! :rockon:
For a no cost mod I say it is well worth it.
I forgot to take a picture before I cut the part out so the placed the part I cut out back in for the picture.
Here it is after the cut.
Here it is installed.
