sorry. It is true though. The stock box is a highly refined unit from the well designed flow horn to the variable fresh air intake integration. Just throw in a K$N drop in filter and that is really the best you can do.

I have experience on wasting money on this. I bought a first gen K$N. :hides face in shame:

They improved the whole thing thats why theres Version 2, well u can say that "copied" RB's design. but its still better.

I had Version 1 and now Im using Version 2. Everything except for the price has been improved over the older version.

back to topic.

HIgh RPM u should hear a "ding ding ding", "grrrRRRrr", or "fuUuuuuUUu" kind of sound.especially at full throttle. Im not sure if its normal or not cuz I got that kind of sound from "day 1" of my Version 2. but hey my Engine didnt blow up yet so I think its fine (for now, dunno about long term)

but, remember, the new design "requires" a clean up pretty quick, maybe just bcuz Im in NYC where all the dust are. I clean my filter every 1/2 year,and yes its quite tirty when I open it.
