Nice work

Looks great!

Very neat - the only thing I would change is the flexible tube as they are very high friction - use a smoother bore tube although given length maybe not worth the effort.

Check air speed at full throttle to get idea of impact of tube.

There standard on the zx10 circa 06-07 ( other years may be the same) the problem is you get two trumpets at 90 deg and two flat trumpets so ended up having to buy a second zx10 airbox off the bay cheap tho paid £36 for the second box!!!! And it all came together quite well, thanks for the comments!!!!!!!!
