On a second note, my intake pressure hasn't chnaged since I had my VT1 installed by Goodspeed. Anyone have in hard rules about replacing your filter cone or is it by visual inspection?
I haven't modded that area, but I'm due for a filter wash. I'm also thinking about putting some heat reflective tape on the intake piping, but first I need to figure out how to isolate the hot engine bay air from the air filter.

On another note, I've been running a non-Ess approved main belt for a few months, and apparently its slipping. I took her to the quarter mile track last night, and was only trapping 107MPH, 13.2 was the best run. weak weak weak.

My meth kit's pump is dead, so I'm gonna replace that, and get a new belt.

Then its time for catless exhaust finally, and to start saving up for big-boy mods
