how this for swiss cheese mod

I cut the front and fender side of the airbox out. Then took a aluminum gutter screen and rivited it into the airbox so no large debris and get trapped inside. If i figure out how to post pics i will.

You have to be elite to directly post pics.

Thats a great idea. Looks professional

Nice neat job!

SkanlaxJMO · 02-19-2006, 11:10 AM

what did you use to cut the holes for the screen with?
BTW to post pics you take the image location for cardoamin it is http://merimage.....etc.. then you insert an [img] at the front and then [/img] at the rear. so how does the air box work?

better accelertion overall and i can tell a lil more power. I bough the screen at lowes and it had that size holes. i cut the airbox via dremel.

Thanks for posting this information. I just wanted to add a couple of things. The first one is if you see an image on a website, and you want to post its link, you just right click on properties, then copy the url onto the post you are making. If you just do this, it will show a link to the url. Thanks to SkanlaxJMO's advice, all you have to do is change the url to say img.

[img]http://memimage.cardomain.net/member_images/11/web/2147000-2147999/2147253_9.jpg[/img
it looks like that but after the final [/img] be sure to have the final ] on it I took it off to show what it looks like

Another thing I just found out is that you have to hit enter after every picture link, or your page will show them horizontally instead of vertically.

SkanlaxJMO · 02-19-2006, 09:19 PM

ok say you want the full size image and are to lazy to open each image here is how to do it modifing the code.

so as you can see the bigger one is better
now a samll image code looks like this
http://www.cardomain.com/member_page.../2147253_9.jpg
after the 9 or whatever the image number is you instert a _full then the .jpg
this makes the image full sized
