Pipercross filter - Hayabusa Airbox sensors?
Northpole - 10/11/14 at 08:12 PM

I am replacing the original Hayabusa airbox with a Foam filter from Pipercross.

Can anyone tell me what to do with the 2 sensors that fitted to the org Hayabusa airbox?

One is bolted on the outside of the airbox, and another (intake air temperatur sensor?) is bolted inside the Hayabusa airbox.

Where can I place these 2 sensors?

(I did try to search for this here, but without luck....)

thanks-

Is there room to fix them onto base plate of filter?

Thanks for your reply.

Yes, I was just thinking of the same. The sensor outside the Hayabusa box, is that MAP sensor? Is it important where that one is located or how it turns?
The sensor (Air intake temp.?) inside the org Hayabusa airbox, should problably be inside the new filter, and yes there is space for a small hole on the base plate.
Does this sounds okay to you?

The one in the airbox is Intake air temp and the one bolted to the back with a vacuum line going to it is the MAP sensor, intake air temp sensor should really be in the base plate but people on other engines just stick them somewhere around the air intake or whatever, the MAP sensor shouldn't have any issues being mounted elsewhere.

Thank you for your reply.
Just one thing, the MAP sensor, does it matter if it has not the right "slope" as original? I.e its position horizontal.

PS
The Pipercross filter, is it ready for use from new? Or do I need to spray the "Dirt Retention additive" on the foam? If yes, how much?
