I modify the orignal filter by removing all the "air cannot pass through filter" papers and stuff in filters bought from aquarium shop that use for filtering water.

The results: less fuel consumption more power. And the filter is washable save money.

would opening or modifying the airbox add power to the wave ?

An open airbox would necessary cool down the 4 stroke engine better ?

anyone has done or thought bout it ?

[SmallCC]

Sorry, i am a noob. May i know wat is an airbox?

I thought our wave engine are all air cooled, meaning the wind blow the engine as you move. Is there a fan in a box that cool the engine????

[shorty]

do u mean de black box in front of de engine there?...i did change it to an open pod air filter.i tink it will increase power a bit.

Air box is used to filter the air with a filter medium before supplying air to the carb.

 

Cheers !

Oh i see , so the so called 'airbox' is the air cleaner box. I have modify the original paper filter to a more free flow washable filter.(See picture).

Result in more power and less fuel consumption. But i didn't notice that open pod filter can cool down the engine.

air filters are not for cooling down the engine lah bro.

It's to filter air that is being supplied to the carb.

change le will have better FC and abit more power ?? can enlighten me a bit bro ? :cheeky:

[SmallCC]

Less fuel consumption because with more air flowing thru the carb., the engine now run leaner with lesser fuel and fast acceleration with much better throttle response.

oh upz upz.... where do you change that airbox thingy ar ? maybe i wanna change also... :cheeky:

[SmallCC]

I do it myself. I just cut away the paper filter using a pen knife. Then buy the filter from aquarium shop and stuff it into the box.

[zacc_]

Wah power power !!!!! teach me how leh !!! lol... i want to do it but i don't know how sial... hahha.... :cheeky:

[bluelabel]

drill holes into it , or just take out de air box , and put air k&n air filter , or just take out de whole air box , and put a metal lining there to cover up de gaps so de dirt cant enter so much into ur carb .

 

doing any of the above will have better respone for ur bike . (but not recommended taking out ur whole airbox , if u really wanna take it out put and air filter there)

[SmallCC]

Whatever you do , just remember that singapore will always have rain. The airbox not only to hold the filter , but also prevent rain water from getting into the carb.
