Default Stealth airbox+FTRA?

I just put the Stealth on and it provided a very noticeable gain, especially above 3,000rpm. Has anyone seen any more gains with the FTRA added? If so, is there anything special that needs to be done to accomodate the Stealth?

I dont think the FTRA would fit since the stealth air box is so much bigger. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" />

There was a guy on ebay selling a kit to make the ftra work with the stealth box. it was just some sheet metal and sealing foam tape so it is possible. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> Just get out the tin snips and go

i have the stealth lid and ftra and i did pick up some with the ftra. how much....i cant remember but it did show an improvement. it does take some work to modify the stealth lid to seal up to the ftra but its nothing hard. <img border="0" alt="[burn out]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_burnout.gif" />

Would you get more power from a Direct flow and FTRA than just a Stealth lid? Using the FTRA and the Stealth combined doesn't seem to work too well. What do you think?

I think I'm gonna give it a shot and try to find a used FTRA first(good luck). I would put my money on the Stealth alone over any lid with the FTRA at speeds under 80mph or so.
