Airbox

[Maarten Siegers-2]

Hello group,

I would like to make my car (Fury R1 2003) a bit more suited for the race track as I'm thinking about entering a dutch racing series and one of the key issues that needs to be addressed is the noise. I would like to start by adding an airbox to the car but I'm unsure as to what is the best way to do this. I currently have a pipercross filter on the car and I'm thinking of building a box around this and covering the inside of that box with sound mats and having a large diameter hose going to the front of the car for fresh air. But I believe that the more common approach is to build the box around it with the filter removed and fit a different filter at the end of the hose.

Looking I'm very much looking for some good advice and any pointers that you may have. Thanks!

Cheers

Maarten

    I make them of 2mm aluminium to really make the noise go down .
if you go any thinner the pulse of the engine will destroy the material
to keep the airbox under the bonnet we made a special design for the fury with a fireblade
don't now about the R1 if it will fit though.

Just an idea...
Look at CBS catalog. You'll see a canister with remote filter housing.
All you'll need is to - maybe using your currente filter's base as template - make an airbox, as the filter will be remotely installed.

Cheers,
Joao

Maarten,

het beste is om gewoon het originel luchtfilter te gebruiken!
De motor loopt het fijnst en je hebt zo weinig mogelijk lawaai!

Use the originel airbox!
The enige runs smooth and doesnt make to much noise!

Cheers, Ben

Hi Maarten,

Try Peter Kohler (HP Motorsport). He made me an alumium airbox for the Striker that works a treat.

Good to hear you're thinking about joining us in the CCRC...it's a blast! :o)

Jon.
