I too have gone the 6 hole route for airbox modification. Use the filter vents made by Uni, I have had no problems thus far. They are cheap and very easy to maintain. You dont want to run the risk of running lean, so I would say go up 2 sizes on the main to a 155 then test from there. Good luck!

Get the air vent filters & yes rejet if needed. You most likely will need one possible two sized bigger than your stock.

I took the airbox cover off my scrambler, and it ran AWFUL. Started and idled fine, but wouldn't take the throttle at all. Makes me think that it'd really run re-jetted. Don't really want to leave my airbox open all the time. I ride in alot of sand.

How much trouble is it to change a jet. Would it be worth changing it for different conditions ?

Thanks,
Dave
