Well called Benton at xsboost and he e-mailed me the instructions and some other stuff and it does fit and works very well I am very pleased..I also replaced antifreeze with engine ice and the bike runs cooler with that and the fan controller...Should of done this when new...

Yes I did...I admit that I would not have known how to do that way..But I didn't want a hack job either....The kit works and it looks factory, it works for me and it does do what it says it will do also...Someone had also told me that trying to it on your own would cause a engine code to appear...So anyway did it this way...

I made my own and my engine code never came on.You could have asked us and we would have walked you though it.

Yea...I have read a few post here and have gotten a few good ideas...So let me ask a question here..What is the best air filter to run in the bike that makes a difference? I have always heard that the stock filter is the best..But I see some people like the bmc race filter and wonder if it is better than stock..

i read mixed reviews about the K&N being good or bad so i switched back to stock and my bike feels like its running a LITTLE better than with the K&N. apparently bmc race has the best flow tho even over the stock filter.
