Air filter induction noise
« on: September 17, 2016, 17:00:46 »
Fitted a new airfilter (BMC) yesterday - QUESTION - Loads of induction noise with the BMC. I'm sure I put everything back together right, but, before I rip into it all to check - Is the induction noise normal with BMC airfilter?

Hi,
Indeed there will be more noise as the whole surface of a BMC filter is foam which opens up airbox space resulting in more noise. Some people remove the snout to make induction noise louder .
