Well, I had an old K&N air filter from my 8-Ball laying around and figured that since I had the Arlen Ness filter on it I had no need for it anymore, I cut it down, made a plate out of 16ga stainless, cut a 2" x 5" slot, and installed my modified K&N filter on to it, The Vision pulls hard, now I'm just have to play around with the VFC settings until I get it dialed in right.

Wow - A Man who likes to "Machine". Interesting weekend project but wouldn't the cost of the Stainless and time spent easily equal buying the K&N for the Vision? Does you braacket offer the same amount of air flow?

Not really, my time is free (I had nothing better to do at the time) and the stainless was some scrap I had laying around. BTW, I will be getting the K&N for the front intake, this one was the intake plate similar to the one Lloyd has for sale on the site.

Does you bracket offer the same amount of air flow?
It should, Lloyds has a surface area of just under 10 sq. in. The filter area in mine is right at 10 sq. in.

I haven't taken my bike far enought apart to see where this would go. Would it do the same as the Ness "twin Sucker"?

Half of it, the Twin Sucker has the front and the top filters.

If you installed one of them intake plates that you can buy off of here on a completely stock bike would you see any difference at all? would it be worth it?

it'd probably need a remap or controller since it allows it to breathe alot better.
