You are increasing the air flow therefore you need to increase the fuel. The Pm box allows you to do this and the Dyno set up is needed to get the air fuel ratio set correctly for the full throttle range. _________________

Sccar you may well use an after market airfilter but you need to be aware that it may restrict air flow it does not always allow more air in, but either way to be sure dyno the bike and get the best air flow reading to be on the safe side. any decent dyno can get the standard box off ans a neat trick air filter on. just ring round where you live and go and see someone. |
