Title: Stock Airbox cut restriction - how much
Post by: JoeH on November 06, 2014, 10:09:36 PM

Hi,

This is how my stock airbox looks (I guess previous owner has messed with it a bit / cut out)
Basically how much more can be cut out from the air box/filter exit?

Also showing entrance for what its worth.

My last box was also cut around the sides that belong to the bottom half of the airbox. Depends what the spec/map you have
