gx200 airfilter mod

[r_chez_08]

how does having an airfilter like uni improve perfirmance? what is bad about the stock ones? what would the hp gain be on a stock clone?

 

[ApocGoD]

Air filter size increase usually adds more air into the carb, allowing better combustion of the fuel.

 

[r_chez_08]

but arnt uni ones smaller?

 

[ApocGoD]

Not all of them are small, like the http://www.bikebandit.com/k-n-oval-high-flow-replacement-filters are pretty big

 

[r_chez_08]

ok, would something like http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=290353797477&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT
or http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=190325550784&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT
work?

Send me a link to the stock clone you have, if you can.

 

[r_chez_08]

its just a normal gx200 clone, 197cc, with custom header.

drill out jet when you add airfliter and adapter

I drilled mine .035 could go .036 prolly

 

[r_chez_08]

Foam filter is reusable, must replace paper once dirty.

 

[r_chez_08]

oh ok, so foam is better.

even though my engine is a lemon, i removed the paper out of the stock filter, cheap easy upgrade! i did drill my jet and it ran rich, to the point of blubb-blubb-blubb when i let off the gas.

 

[r_chez_08]

wtf?!
my stock filter is foam all through, unlike most gx200 clones.

 

[mike75925]

yours doesn't have the foam outer w/ paper inner separated by a metal mesh?

 

[r_chez_08]

no, just foam
