i have heard of people running their machines with removed airbox lids,the only thing i noticed is that it ran alot louder,what else does this exactly do to your quad,give more air to the filter?

 

Yea it does give it more air, but it might be on the lean side now cause of more air with out the fuel to go with it... Are you running the stock jets? You might want to check your plug and adjust the air/fuel screw to even out the mix...



hope this helps

 

oh no,im not runnig mine without the airbox,i just wanted to know what would happen if i did it,maybe in the future i will but i cant do that becuz people already think my scram is too much of a quad(i have the fastest quad in town)

 

You are not going to get any better performance from it without the lid. In fact, it may run worse. The scrambler has a CV carb that uses a vaccum in the air box to open the slide. With the lid off, the vaccum is less and the slide may not open all the way. If you want better air flow, get the HPD air box/carb mod. It has a huge scoop and recalibrates the carb so everything works together. It is more than just changing the main jet. The slide spring and needle jet tube need to be replaced

 

lol, Your from good old FLA, well then again whats the temp by you? you might be fine cause warm air is less dense then cold air....

 

okay thanks for the info,i will keep the lid on,


oh yea,what is the cost of a k&n filter versus the one from the dealer

 

BBS, i agree with what you said, but with my scram in the summer when i took the lid off it seemed like i got some more low end torque.... That was when it was stock and i could get the front end up easier with the lid off...

 

im in orlando right now so i dont know what the temp is in tallahassee but it is usually between 50 80 degrees

 

The best place to get a K&N is from rocky MT i think they have them for $35...

 

i was checkin them out earlier,i might get another helment from them too,they have then for like 50 or 60 bucks d.o.t. appr. and snell appr.
