Air Filter Change

Postby kelvin156 on Sun Feb 24, 2008 9:11 pm

Need a bit of advise am looking to stick a new air filter on me fezza to make it sound a bit more sporty.

I know there is not real increase in power.

Am i better just sticking a Performace panel in the existing box or installing an induction system with cone.

If the latter are they easy to fit ?

He was referring to drilling a few holes in the airbox and not the filter btw ;)

drill holes south of the air filter, so you always get filtered air, big holes give you a throaty roar, and a few smaller ons will give more of a raspy sound.
