Has anyone had any luck removing the vacuum system and just plugging the ports on the carbs.

I have to admit i have not looked into this at all just enough to see that there is a lot of hose behind the carbs with the fuel, coolant, and vacuum i would love to pull it all out and make for for some wiring and electronics to go there.

 

Mine is removed... i was recommended (by manuf.) when I got different jets

 

Did you plug the vacuum ports in the carbs? What about the vent control, just disconnect it?

 

there's a thread on cbrworld with the exact routing of the hoses... it's down atm, search it on there once it goes back online... I saw it yesterday

 

I know the routing, not woried about how the route, more there nesesity. Can i remove them all, silicone the inlets disconect the vent control and not have created myself a new group of issues to resolve?

 

Oh, that I don't know... You may get a better answer on a designated racing forum like wera... I know a few guys run on a f3 there

 

I just remembered, if you plug those vaccum holes completely, you'll maybe have issues at low speeds... from what I read up to 12mph, but we only go 12 for about 1 second...

 

What exactly are the advantages of doing this? aside from having lots of room beneath? Im very interested in doing this but is it worth it messing with hondas setup? I have a cali model so i would love to see a write up, i checked the cbrworld and couldnt find much

 

The F3 stock comes with Cold Air Induction (or a form of it), when you remove the hoses and the electronics and hook up the hoses a specific way you turn the CAI into a Direct Air Induction.

Give me a few min, I'll find the thread - site is still down, hootie I'm not sure how you searched their site when they're down :\
