I lengthened the breather pipe on mine. It's now located in the void under the rider's seat.
I also went through the same loop as you on the O-rings .... until I found out that you don't use them with the Rene kit.
I've not removed the under-tank insulation.

theres a front air duct thing from the original airbox that can be left or removed the difference being the temperature of the air coming through you don't use o rings and the oil brather has a couple of solutions can be connected to the silver filyter paddy has his ppointing down I think and what andy said
Basically these things are there to allow all the air through so te plate just seals everything and the filter is just that the minimum required nect to not having one may be oversimplified but ...

oh and it works better if whe you open it up for the first time you scream lets make some noise and grin ... a lot

For the avoidance of doubt and for the benefit of my wife, not everything I may say here will be absolutely true I may on ocassion embellish a little for effect.
That said when it comes to motorbikes, I like to ride side saddle with a nice frock

cool, going to get a longer hose and connect up the breather where it is, and can't wait to unplug the original restriction wire to put her into the second map on the gabro chip

That induction roar is addictive.....
Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...

She feels a lot more peppier. I don't know if the chip actually makes her produce more power or just makes things work together properly but she feels so much more responsive. And I'm loving that roar, its as loud at the front as it is at the back

I'm sure I hear Pete say the same thing about Hanna ............
