New air filter setup
I have an 03 lowrider wit ha stage 1 kit. I have the football air filter set up and was wondering if I wanted to change to a new style what it would involve.
Would I need to buy a new filter? new hardware for connecting? and are there benifits to different types.

RE: New air filter setup
If you already have stage 1 are you just looking for a different cover for the air filter??
I took off the football and used an Evolution style round cover, just used a $4 gasket from HD to give it the perfect fit, I think it probably would have fit without the gasket though. There are a lot of different styles of covers out there that will fit and you don't have to change any other parts.
Otherwise you can go with S&S or one of the hyperchargers, etc..then you have to change the whole assembly.

RE: New air filter setup
They are not difficult to install, and you probably will have to remap. To be honest though, there is no need to go to a higher flow filter if you still have stock heads, throttle body, etc. The bike will only use so much air without more modifications and the SE or Big Sucker 1 provide more than enough air for an otherwise stock bike.
But in some people's opinion the Hyperchargers and Induction air filters look cooler so I guess that is one reason to install them.
