Hi chaps,
I have r1 carbs to fit to a 2L zetec, supplied by bogg brothers, any ideas on air filters?
at present I dont even have inlet trumpets just the opening on the carb so can take any route

See Link
You can buy them with a blank back plate. Just cut to size and bond on to the catbs.
A set of R1 trumpet will cost loads, try without to start with.

Hi,
that setup looks great, I take it having no trumpets doesnt really make much difference- and that they can be added later?
also is filter cleanable like k+N?

Please dont do separate socks if possible - they sap power.
Dont just build it.....make it!

Wrong, trumpets make lots of difference. I changed from 50mm ones to 70mm ones on my blackbird carbs and the difference to the mid range was
fantastic.
Basically
Short trumpets = more top end at expense of low end
Long trumpets = strong low and mid range at expense of top end
