LegalizeFreedom Posted June 12, 2009 Report Posted June 12, 2009 Hello, I was wondering what the best K&N setup was. Direct bolt on (eliminates air box)2 into one or 2 separate filters, in air box filter, in air box filter with holes cut for more flow, or the Powerlid(replaces air box top)? Thank you Quote
jbooker82 Posted June 12, 2009 Report Posted June 12, 2009 It all depends on if you ride in mud and water. K&N pods (individual filters directly on the carbs) is going to be the best performance. If you do a lot of mud and water riding these wouldn't be the best choice. Most kits come with an outerwear that is water repelant. They work good for the ocasional puddle. The pods are nice for jetting. The stock air box sucks taking in and out. If you run in lots of mud and water then a stock air box with a billit plate is the way to go. You just clamp one filter on the plate and run it with no air box lid. They also have the water repelant outerwear. I wouldn't mess with a k&n power lid. The are just used as a precleaner. You still have to run an airfilter in the box. Quote
kawa110 Posted June 12, 2009 Report Posted June 12, 2009 2 k&n pods w/outerwears is the way to go if you dont ride mud or water alote. Remove the airbox youll need something to hold your cooland res, unless you cut your airbox. Quote

Are there brackets make for it out there? Quote
jbooker82 Posted June 12, 2009 Report Posted June 12, 2009 I would keep the res. Some guys just take it completly off. Armidillo makes 2 coolant bottle brackets. A plain one and one that holds 2 extra spark plugs. I have the spare plug holder. Rocky mountain sells them. Quote
