Hey guys.
I was thinking of upgrading my air filter ( DNA OR K&N ), I have had my ECU flashed before and have a full Akra system on the bike. Would I need a re flash with the upgrading filter or could I just swap out?

thanks.
Craig.

Should just be able to replace it. Unless you did it on the Dyno with your bike specifically, it was probably tuned for clean air filter or the flashers' air ratio.

Thanks for the reply, saying that. The bike was put on the dyno as well.

Well, if you do redyno it, please post your before and after graphs. I'm sure people would be very interested in seeing if there was a difference in changing your air filters, myself included.

I'll see if this thread is still active before I start a new one. Stumbled across this air filter on eBay that remind me of the k&n filter, it also needs to be washed and oiled. Any experience to share on this?
