    I suggest a large conefilter installed on the end of the MAS, replacing the stock airbox. You will get a bit more hot air sitting at idle but when moving you'll be flowing more from the fender and around the headlights.

    There are 2 green filters on my website - one a conventional large cone with seperate cone on the top for additional flow. The other is the Twister that installs in the same place, uses an ever largercone filter but covers the filter in a large heat dissapating alumimum cone that keeps hot air from being injested and allows you to point the intake tube into the fender (once you remove the constricting elbow there)

    You will feel the difference. It you want to change out the intake tube itself, the majority of that for looks and could even contribute to heating the air if made out of a metal that holds heat.

    the bigger the better, with more surface area the more air and the less resistance there is. usually cone filters are held on by hose clamps, theyre extremely easy to install.

    The XL 2501 Green Twister as it provides seriously increased air filtering surface AND keeps the hot air out so it will provide more power. Remove stock airbox and install this on the end of the MAS with the included silicone sleeve. On my website and in stock, ready to ship.

    so if you get the filter with the aluminium sleeve, will you still need to make a heat shield for the filter or does the sleeve do it for u?
