Keep in mind that dewalling is okay but adding a K&N panel filter will get you no real HP but it will allow twice as much dirt etc. Through compared to a good paper filter. pros running the renny generally use the stock intake with a paper filter.

Oh and here is a shitty shot from a meet Saturday night It was my first time at this spot and the lighting was very dim and I forgot my tripod

I was just giving Loggins a really simple immediate mod that actually give a small result. Before I had my CAI (which I just put in this past weekend BTW), I ran the dewall with the K&N and had no issues. I liked the set up.

Yeah the "dewall" and VFAD removal is a good idea. I took a bit further but I run the well tested WIX filter.

Looks good man. So you decided with R magic huh? Cool, now shine your exhaust tips Brasso and ultra fine steel wool works wonders.
