GSXR Throttle Body Air Filter Photos?
AntonUK - 24/3/12 at 05:30 PM

Could you be so kind in posting pictures of how re-spaced GSXR throttle body's filter have been mounted.

I would like to use a pipercross sausage filter with some kind of trumpet arrangement.

I'm currently debating in my head how to do it, as there does not seem a straight forward place to mount the back plate or trumpets on the TB I have.

Any hints tip or photos etc welcome...

Hi i have some gsxr tb's on my car

I re-spaced mine onto a st170 manifold using st170 fuel rail and injectors Cost me around £55

I have 4 trumpets of a Gsxr i just bought an air box cheap of ebay £15 posted removed the trumpets and binned the air box there rubber not metal but for the price difference i couldn't care

The trumpets have 2 claps holding on the 4 trumpets these still work despite being re-spaced

I have a blank base-plate to fit a piper-cross filter got it of someone on here its real good quality for around half the price and all i have to do is cut holes for my tb's and fix it to them somehow ...


If you want some pics of my trumpets let me know i am going to have a go at fitting my back plate tonight

Doddy... Just noticed your comment if i cut holes in my blank base-plate will the gsxr trumpets be enough to secure the plate ?

Thanks

The rubber trumpets on mine had a section with a groove in where they fit in the original airbox.. I cut the holes in the back plate to suit and bobs your uncle..
