No-Link Air Box setups

[bushwesl]

Are there any no-link air box setups currently manufactured by anyone?? I'm looking for one for my no-link LSR 250R, but can't seem to come up with anything. Is a custom airbox my only route to go? Any help here would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Wes

Custom will be your best bet. I had a no link LSR/CRF and I hated the airbox set up on it. I had found a guy that was gonna make me an airbox out of stainless steel and I was gonna take it to an exhaust shop and see if they could make me a piece of pipe to go from the air box to the carb, then weld it to the air box.

Yea, that's pretty much the consensus that I'm getting from everyone. Ok, with that said, could everyone post some pics of their no-link air box setups so that way I have a better idea of what I need to have built. The more pics and the more details you can provide me with the better. Thanks in advance!

This is a Houser no-link chassis with a modded 400ex airbox and a ltr500 air boot.

Thanks for the pics man, I appreciate it. That's obviously a LT500 boot, right? I can't tell if you've done anything to make that adapt to the carb better or not. Is there anything inbetween the LT500 boot and the carb? Or does the LT boot fit directly onto the carb?

Thanks again,
Wes

I made a reducer/adapter. The ltr500 boot was to big and a tad to short. I modded the boot as well. Took out some of the bend and added more clearance for the shock by heating it with a heat gun and holding everying in place as it cooled.

The adjustable subframe is pretty sweet looking. Have you tried different positions yet?

[wilbur116]

Not really. Moving it much messes with the pipe and intake.

Does anyone know what has to be done to a stock 250r airbox to work with the houser no-link frame? I already have an idea for the 250r boot-i just have to heat/bend it and extend it with a boot deal from a car

[hontrx265r]

with a no link I think the lt500 boot is the best place to start no matter what box you use. It bends perfect around the shock and flows huge. A 250r airbox has to have a piece added to the flange to make it larger PVC works perfect just use epoxy it will last a longtime if done right. Or a custom airbox. From there depending on if your using a hybrid motor or 250r you'll need to have a fabricator make a flange usually. here is the one I use on my lsr hybrid yzf powered. Sorry the pics aren't on the quad but it works perfect, best I've had yet of all my hybrids.

[bushwesl]

Wanna make me one? Or give me the information of the person that made that one. Do you think that a centermount exhuast would work with something like that?

Those setups look so restrictrive its unreal. Please tell me I'm wrong lol. I about made my throw up. Nice work though, just look like the engine doesn't get enough air.

[KPatterson]

vAnS_77, what airbox setup are you using- I dont like the one I have now(its a UM aluminum) and I am looking for more ideas

[hontrx265r]

Its not restrictive at all, It looks alot more extreme in the pic then in real life. It doesn't really have an extreme bend and the inside is perfectly flowed, it has a radius when it reduces, no sharp edges or welds. Show me one that you think flows better though? hybrid intakes are just something we have to deal with.

[vAnS_77]

Mine is stock airbox the shock kind of burdens the tunnel. I mean I just run stock 400ex, It's pretty good.

[KPatterson]

So what would be the best airbox setup on a limited budget? I have a spare stock 250r airbox and boot. Right now I am using a UM aluminum airbox-not sure if it's 250r or 400ex- but the boot is way too small(it's like something from a car)
