minnshee01 Posted March 9, 2004 Report Share Posted March 9, 2004 I was wondering what would be the best air box mod for me. I live in norhtern Minnesota, so there is mud puddles, rain and deer shit everywhere . Is there a good way to mod my airbox without getting that shit in there? Right now I have a K&N in the stock box and I still have the shitty snorkel on. Any ideas? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
. Posted March 9, 2004 Report Share Posted March 9, 2004 yeah, run a dual stage foam, rip that airbox lid off, rejet.....and never look back.....well except for holes that are deeper than the airbox. Been running that way for over 2 years now with no problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nater006 Posted March 9, 2004 Report Share Posted March 9, 2004 Yeah.. the foam deal would work if you're worried about getting water and such in it. When I got mine it had a couple small vents in the airbox lid... I'm just like.. whatever! Dropped that lid quick and never looked back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MILO Posted March 10, 2004 Report Share Posted March 10, 2004 minnshee01, i run without the lid all the time. i have a pro design adaptor and foam filters. haven't had any problems with it yet. just be sure to check your filter after every ride, and clean as needed. and ditch the drain catch on the bottom of the box to let water and stuff roll back out. as said before, just watch out for water crossings that would be over your airbox. otherwise, you should be fine.

. Posted March 10, 2004 Report Share Posted March 10, 2004 I still have my catch tube on the bottom of my airbox, I just cut the bottom of it off so water can still exit it pretty quickly but wont get in as fast. They make one way valves for them but I forget where to get them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boonman Posted March 10, 2004 Report Share Posted March 10, 2004 I also run with no lid. I use a UNI foam filter, with an outerwear. And of ccourse the needed pro-flo plate. You will need this if you plan on removing the lid. You need to have the pro-flow plate anyways. The stock filter setup sucks ass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MotulMonsta Posted March 10, 2004 Report Share Posted March 10, 2004 I cut the whole back side of the airbox off right where it meets where the pro flow kit mounts to. So in essence I have no airbox. just a big foam filter hangin' out in the open. I've yet to have any problems with the filter falling off..I race mx with it..but I do worry about sucking water. Pro flow is a tough ass kit and very dependable AND long lasting. One of the most trouble free mods i've made. If your really worried about water, they make special lids with vents along the sides and back. You can do this yourself on the stock lid. What you want is to channel the water down and around the filter while maintaining good airflow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
