Well also if anyone has a way to fabricate or explain to me all the pieces of the stock air box, I would appreciate it.
Look for posts by sohron (I think). I recall he posted a picture of all the parts needed for a stock air box system.
An alternative is to look at the parts fiche (on line at Western hills Honda, for example).
Depending on year/model there are some differences in the top cover of the filter box.
As seems to be usual, this has all been discussed before.
You can rejet for pods to get it running well enough. But, it won't run the best it can at all throttle settings.
Finally, I'll repeat that "pods" is not a functional specification, its a general style.
"Automobile" or "motorcycle" is a general style descriptor. But, it doesn't define any more than a general appearance.
Not all "pods" have the same flow or pressure drop characteristics, particularly over the entire engine operating band. Therefore, there is no "recipe" for your rejet unless you use the exact same parts that someone you trust has employed, tested, and proven at all throttle ranges. Then you have to hope that the brand of pods you purchased was not made differently by the manufacturer or made in the same way as the ones employed by the person you trusted. There can be manufacturing, material, and quality control issues for any brand, that needn't abide to Honda specifications or any specifications besides their own (assuming they actually have a specification besides mechanical fit).
Cheers,
