Title: Air intake question
Post by: heinzrx on October 05, 2003, 03:27:08 PM
Hey all,

My wife's GS500 has been rejetted (127.5 mains, 40 pilots and a #4 washer under the needles) and the stock pipe has some holes drilled in it.

I suspect it needs to breathe a bit better. What's the best approach?

Pod filters?

Drop-in replacement for the stock filter?

It looks like there's not much to modfiy on the stock airbox since the end of it is wide open already.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Heinzrx

honestly, that jetting is good for the factory filter/exhaust etc.. but you could add a slip on or pipe.. and maybe a drop in k&n.. if you want pods, id go with much larger mains.. that setup is perfect for good warm-ups too! :thumb:
