Guinea pig wanted for intake modifications

[kopfjäger]

I regularly ride near or above triple digits, and live in a quite wet climate here in Germany. Pods really aren't an option.

I would volunteer mine (monster 1100 evo) but its bone stock. no ecu to program. Unless you want stock vs aftermarket intake w/o tuning.

pick up a Powercommander V
then you are a perfect candidate IMO

If there was a closer dyno to use it would have loved to get a stock v. Pods v. Mwr v2. 

I wish I understood airflow and airbox design better,  it always sounds as though building an airbox around the pods would be ideal.

In my lack of knowledge on the subject,  i consider the tiny flow channels between the tank covers and airbox as a huge drain on potential.   It would be sweet if evr or the like would do a bigger cf airbox, as they do for the sf sbk and other models.

well. If its worth it I can. I'm new to monster so still reading about performance upgrades...

The power commander/autotune was a great mod... Bike runs so smooth and strong now. Plus, no matter what changes you make to bike(filter/exhaust/engine) the bike will adjust for best performance...

Voice inflection does not come across as desired in a post so let me say this up front; I am NOT flaming but rather asking a question I don't know the answer to.

Why would one do this as opposed to velocity stacks? If they both require a dyno tune why not eliminate the airbox all together?

Does this option offer you increased air flow while maintaining the features of an air filter?

The simplest answer is that this kit is less than 1/2 the price and will most likely delivery 3/4 or more of the performance. That's what we've seen with other kits from MWR. This hasn't been tested yet so can't say for certain about the gains, just the price. The weight difference isn't going to matter to anyone with a Monster.

I've got a guy volunteering who has a 796 and Bazzaz. I'll still offer the same to a 696 and 1100 owner so we can have some more results to analyze.

What you're doing is great. Looking forward to seeing the results.

hi, how can I contact you?

Do you have to cut the top of the airbox to fit the new, secondary filter?

No, you just pop those plastic covers out. I've got an install pdf that I'll post once I have a chance to upload it.
