Anyones interesting on pipe or superlon, contack ninja_iga aka Stanley.

wetwetwater, thanks and i'm fine with my stock EX850 engine. :P
The Aluminium Air RAM Pipe are made from MPower, somewhere near Chung Ling's High School. I think it won't cost much. But with this modification, i had to sacrify away my Windscreen water box. :P

After this DIY, engine response was a bit faster. :)

Stanley, thanks for the Superlon. :)

Ok, this small filter actually is used on EFI engine. For better air flow smooth go in injectors.

But i use it for : Since i change to open pod air filter, there is a hose that connect back to original air filter box from engine bay. But it can't connect back after i used open pod air filter, sometimes when then engine's oil was too full/high rev. Some engine oil will come out from this hose, and spread it on everywhere on my engine bay. Thats why i use this small filter to stop those engine oil spread out and let those burned gas go out with a transparent pipe (for fish tank use). And i dun want those burned gas go into my Air Filter. :P

That small filter can get it from any mech places. RM10 only.

Hope my answer doesn't confuse you.

Did i answer your questions ? :)

Benefit with this curve extended Air Ram are you can point your Air Filter to diff directions (depends where is your cold air intake).

MPower customized it for me. :) Price around RM35 ~ 40 (Price are not fixed) Hope you all understand. B)
