Title: Cold air with stock battery box Post by Bobber on 08/20/16 at 20:04:07 I have built a chopper with a stock battery box and can't find any cold air kits that work. Any ideas? |
Title: Re: Cold air with stock battery box Post by Dave on 08/21/16 at 03:29:01 If you are calling the "cone filter" a cold air kit.....it might be possible to use the filter that RYCA sells for the CS-1 kit. It is not a cone - but it is more of a short round filter. I believe the stock air box likely provides more air flow and better performance than any small filter you could fit between the batter box and carb. |

I added a K&N filter in place of my stock air box just this week. I left the factory battery box in place. Now I gotta tell you, it is ridiculously tight. To the point that I will probably end up changing it. I can get you the part number if you'd like. The filter has a 2 1/4" inlet, is 3" around (I think), and is 4" long. Like I said, I may change it. Maybe a 180 degree elbow to a pod filter. |

Title: Re: Cold air with stock battery box Post by Bobber on 08/21/16 at 19:40:38 The frame is wide open behind the carb. |
Title: Re: Cold air with stock battery box Post by Bobber on 08/22/16 at 16:03:47 Dave, the engine is over bored 97 cc bore piston carb re-jetted head and cam done need more air in it. Don't think the stock box can get it done, at least not so far . |

You most likely aren't going to be able to squeeze a cone filter between the carb and stock battery box that will flow any better than the stock air box system....there just isn't room for a big enough cone filter. There also is a big benefit in having the nearly straight tube between the filter and carb, it helps to even out the pressure pulses and create a moving column of air. Some folks have removed the air box and put a larger filter behind the battery box - the better systems move the battery out of the way. I use a big foam air filter.......... http://i50.tinypic.com/fxw3up.jpg Verslagen made a system that uses two filters....one on each side of the frame. |
Title: Re: Cold air with stock battery box Post by Bobber on 08/23/16 at 15:58:02 Dave, Thanks for your reply. Can you hook me up with Verslagen? |
Title: Re: Cold air with stock battery box Post by KennyG on 08/23/16 at 17:47:12 Look in The Market Place for Verslagen His listing is the third one from the top aptly called Verslagen. |

Title: Re: Cold air with stock battery box Post by justin_o_guy2 on 08/23/16 at 18:36:36 There has been a really good Intake Theory thread. Surface area of the filter medium, volume of the airbox between filter and carb, People stud y exhaust system design, and it has a piston Forcing the gasses out. The intake is what creates the exhaust.. without a proper airflow in the engine won't perform like it could. A cone filter on a two inch long hose isn't your friend. |
