Greetings:

What model? The SA50 has a second intake right next to the first that can be drilled, widened without noise penalty. If that doesn't resolve the jetting/air mis-match, check your carb jet and go down a size.

Sorry, no stock box to get a Wheelman "Pic". It's right alongside your existing inlet - on the bottom if I recall correctly. Just punch out the second slot. Somebody give that man a pic?
