It was the sink in the hotel. I am sure they were happy about a pound of sand and oil in their drain. LOL

i find that a regular clothes dryer with a shoe rack works great! a modern one gets them dry in 20 minutes or less. just dont be like me and clean them in gas right before you stick them in your mom's new dryer

alright well i've had the stock filter in it and its an 04 and hasnt been cleaned since so i think im just going to go ahead and buy a new one. now the next question I have is, what kind of filter should I buy? and if its a higher flow one then the stock filter then will i need re-jetting again or could i get away without it? and will it increase performance because of more air flow?

more air flow though the the engine (displacement) means more power

so yes you will get more power
however if it will be noticeable i don't know but since your filter thats on there now probably weights 3 pounds with the dirt on it yes you should get noticeable power

are you still running the same top end in it?

yeh i think its pretty much the same top end other than a bigger main jet and a new pipe.

may need an even bigger jet after you clean it, but if you buy a new one like you said, you will for sure
