No internal velocity stacks and no seal where they attach?  Don't know about that and never will at that price.   :)

Per the website: Our airboxes also come with built in velocity stacks and are fitted with an o-ring inside the mount for good sealing to the carb.

Be nice to have better pics - showing the insides . . . .

I'm on a budget, so a little rich for me. But I thought some of you guys with the great bikes you have, might want something different.

If You can't fix it with a hammer, You've got an electrical problem.

I think that most of these guys would pick up tintop's antipod setup before that. Guy has research on it and a similar price

I wouldn't even call the one in question an "airbox", the whole idea of an air box is to supply a volume of still air to the carbs, there's no volume in that filter set up therefore its NOT an airbox....Pretty simple really.... ;D
