Airbox questions

[ozbonnie]

I received a quote for $89.95 each for pods in aus....seems steep, that is without the crankcase breather or the battery box....$520 for the full kit. (oz $)
I would appreciate any leads, links, comments on how i can achieve this at a cheaper rate.

I can buy a second hand airbox to cut up for aus $180...

Uni pods are US$35 at Newbonneville.com . I'm quite happy with the results.
I chose Unis after reading several on an oil test forum claiming that K&N's do a poor job of filtering silica. Gravel Strainers is what they were nicknamed.

Duck! Here comes a fight.

uni's half the price of k&n, do the uni's fit under the side covers? Is there value for 2x the cost?

UNI's flow more than K&N's, but DNA's flow more than UNI's.

How does DNA compare to K&N as far as pricing? Would you happen to have a DNA part# for pod filters that would fit the bonneville?

check the Dennis Kirk catalog he has the dimensions for all the filters so you can pick what yu want
Uni has angled filters that will fit almost anyting

Uni's fit under the sidecovers just fine.

I believe they are more expensive than the K&N's, but you only have to buy them once. The part number is RO-5404-127. They have 54mm opening are slightly angled, 127mm long and flow better than anything else I've tried including K&N and UNI.
