Now thats something nice...............But you need to dump that air filter your motor wont last long at all with it........also the pipe needs to be in more u need to bend the header in........lastly if your going to run those electronics make sure you get a fail safe.

BTW i have a better pipe than that one if you need it

Yeah, lose the crappy air filter. You need to find a better manifold.

Well the pipe is fine, just get a manifold that moves the pipe inward and back. Paper element filters have poor air flow, especially when they get dirty or damp. You want a nice foam one. That one you have is also ridiculously big, a lot bigger than a filter needs to be.

That filter wont protect you motor from anything, it will allow tons of dust and dirt in and trust me by the time you ran if first half gallon or so.......you can throw the motor in the trash
