So we are talking about a STAGE 3 complete modification….! Sounds good and to be honest we are working on it!!!! Already.
Do you believe there is a market for it ? I would like to hear your opinion.

Thanks

If we can prove that extra HP can be made with a stage 3 filter then yes I think that there is a market.

I know there is extra HP to be gained from the air box & have proven this to myself on past dyno runs, I did a dyno run with stage 1 & 2 filters then without any filters in the air box & there were HP gains to be had. I have run many dyno runs testing all the XT mods & have found this motor needs air & lots of it, depending on what engine mod one is running.

I have also looked at the XTX/R's air box in detail especially the left side of the XT's air box & can't see why a stage 3 filter could not be fitted there.

I am keen to see what you guys come up with.
