pipework

Hey All,

Anybody know if it is possible to buy just the pipework for a set of cans. I bought some nice Micron cans recently and they look great but I am sure at some point I will want to them to be high-mount... so I could just replace the pipework...

Cheers!

Cutting the Airbox

Hello All,

Has anyone tried cutting the plastic strip down the centre of the airbox?
I came across it here (http://www.burniemorgan.com/firestorm/airfilter.html) and was wondering if it is worth doing or if there is any noticeable performance difference?

Cheers!
