That would be the paddyz1 special :smt002 .

It is my own version of the renegade airbox/airplate. Last few post are where the good stuff is

What chip are you running (or PC map)? with the evo airbox the motor is now getting a lot lot more air and you may find (especially if you have race cans fitted) the motor bogging down a bit on the std eprom.

Also if the filter is over-oiled this can make the bike feel "wooly" just off throttle and under acceleration

But what about the noise eh? worth every penny for that induction roar alone I reckon. And Jorge does a kit for the 07 Tuono as well, just have to save up a bit now

On the "other" subject, I wonder what the meeting this morning will reveal?, my bet is we start next season with a 10 point deduction
(ala Rotherham) Sad Sad day on Saturday, I thought we'd done enough.....

funnily enough, my shiny new power commander arrived this morning and will be fettled on this week, work permitting

I am using the standard chip at the moment with my fuel cans - and sorry officer the baffles seem to have fallen out.... I will be looking hard for a decent map - do you have one to recommend?

and yes, the bike does roar a little now :)

as for saturday - I had told my friends months ago that I feared we were finished, and I meant it - i think it is touch and go about surviving administration to be honest - we have no assets left to sell or pawn, and chairman ken wants away....
