hybrid intake

[atvfreak400]

I'am just about ready to send my ex yz frame out for powder coat ,but I'am having second thoughts on my intake.what I have is a rad hose that I made fit around everything and it looks pretty decent and then it hooks back up to my ex airbox but what I don't know is wheather I will be able to dail it in or wheather I should cut the frame and give it a little better shot at the carb.I don't want to cut the frame because every cut you make can possiably weaken the frame.So I thought I would see what you guy think and mybe you could show me how you did yours.

Cut it and tub it out.
It makes for a much better shot,no kink in rad hose.
Will it weaken it????
Place a gusset under it for insurance.
The factory gusset you have to remove (L/H frame rail to rear shock cross bar) is`nt even welded completily around from the factory.
I have done several here with not a problem.

what did you do with your sub frame and do you think that it is realy needed

they didnt cut my frame they just moved the 2 seat things up a little so the seat dosent crush it, then i had to use some sort of pool hose coupler from lowes to go from the carb to the airboot
