Airbox Mod on Gen II
« on: February 26, 2015, 03:32:41 PM »
I have been advised that on the new Busas it is best to replace all 4 of the intake stacks with 4 for a 07-08 Gixxer 1000.  They are shorter and I was informed that just changing them out can increase peak HP by about 2 at peak numbers.  Anyone have any experience?

No takers?  Surely some of you N/A guys have experimented with intake horn height.

I've heard that all short stacks will give you a little on the upper end but take away a little on the low end(I'm guessing the reasoning of the factory for supplying 2 long and 2 short would be a middle ground scenario),so if you're racing and keep the RPM's up you're probably good to go :lol:.

Maybe four 08 Gixxer 1K "short stacks with 1/2 " spacers under em".    :hys:

Hells Bells.............if I go much over 10K, it means someone I don't care for is chasing my wrinkly white ass. (Like those two dudes below).  :eek:  Actually, that is cellulite.  :shock:

As far as I know there isn't an airbox mode for the gen2 like there was for the gen1.

Smells of a turbo to me..............naw, I am done riding 3,4 and 500 hp bikes on the street.  187 N/A is fine.  Headwork/Cams maybe 205-207

Along with the 60 lb weight loss on the bike.  Now if I could only lose half that..........just half.
