I'm a bit confused with the Stage1/2 filter stuff.
Right lads,
help me out a bit here. I've just booked a 3 day trackday event at Park Algar in Portugal. Plan at the moment is to use the XT660x over there. However i do have a choice of a GSXR 600 i've recently re-built/restored. Problem is, i REALLY need more power to get the best of the track. Ideally more top end. I could in theory run a lower tooth sprocket on the rear if i can squeeze a bit more out of the bike. So currently i'm running a stock machine, snorkel removed and a set of cans fitted. So... this DNA stage 1, stage 2 etc confuses me a little. I've seen Kevs threads about "if you run this you get 3bhp more, this you get 2bhp more" But i'm still confused. So considering my setup, what's the way forward ? Sorry it's a daft Qn, i have honestly read stuff and am generally clued up on bikes (have done 2 recent rebuilds) but i think i'm missing something. SO i see, +DNA stage 2 filter only, standard main filter = 3.1HP. (Best gain in HP & torque for your money.) Now see where i get confused is http://www.dnafilters.com/filterdeta...p?filterid=258 Is that all i need to purchase ?

weeksy,
DNA or K&N stage 1 air filter - OE replacement DNA stage 2 air filter box PLus, if you are planning on keeping the bike then drill holes in the air filter box the ohter side to where the dna stage 2 filter is, and in my own personal opinion, fit a PC3 and get it dyno'd. However, fitting the stage 1 and stage 2 alone will allow the bike to breath and you'll be surprised at the difference it will make Cheers WB |

LEts remove the PC3 from the discussion right away, cost is too prohibitive at the moment i'm afraid.
So, ideally a stage 1 and 2 ? is that all for stage 2 ? i recall seeing a 'cover' is that just aesthetics ?
