Title: Drop in K&N Filter without rejet?
Post by: wakdady on June 06, 2010, 01:50:54 AM
The air filter in my GS is too dirty to clean out but I can't find a stock filter anywhere. Can I install a replacement K&N without needing a rejet? I'm not talking about the "lunchbox" i've heard about, just a k&n with the stock airbox.

thanks guys!

yes you can. the drop in filter comes with a rubber restrictor to decrease the airflow a bit so a rejet isnt necessary. and if you decide to get a pipe or do wnat to rejet you can just pop that restrictor right off.
