my 5.5 keepd me climping hills at 35 to 40 and my top end is more like 45 to 50 on a day with little wind.

..that's great blue...

..when i was running the oem airbox and the 5.5s those were my results as well....


..we will forever be a slave to wind speed and direction...

..it's the nature of the beasties...

talken about air box could I use this on my agilty or would I have to rejet.if you notice the end of the filter its smaller then the hose from the air box so the air box hose would go over the end would that work.

..blue, if you're thinking about swapping out the oem airbox for a free-flow filter yeah, you're gonna have to increase the diameter of your carb's main jet...

..and, if you do take that step, i would suggest a K&N filter....

..i got the kn part number here somewhere.....

the air box hose would go over the end would that work.

..however, even this filter , if it fits, would probably be a performance increase....

..you'ld still need to upjet...

Last decent rain mine got wet and blocked, wont run like that. Four stroke might have more sucking power.
