Lol - Thanks.
I have stock air filter and box ( don't worry about shipping ). Do you still have the stock air scoop between the headrests? If so, all you would need is a hose from air scoop to filter box - which you can use a shop vac hose. Let me know, as it is just laying around my garage. Send me a P.m. with your address and I can send it out to you. Anyways good luck and we like pics here....

if plumbing fittings don't work, check in at a pool supply place. sometimes pool filter hose lands right in between plumbing sizes and the end of a short hose section will have a smooth part you can cut off. Likewise, i find that hoses from upright canister vacuum cleaners seem to match better in the same manner. I have one that fits tightly over the carb end and the corrugation locks it in very well (also hose clamped it). It flexes easily to get under the swingarm cross bar and went right onto the aluminum carb adapter for the uni.

Lowes or home depot in the plumbing section, you can pickup a piece of strait trap pipe and in the same general area there is a rubber coupler (clamps included)do not know for what it is used but all you will have to do is trim one end and it fits the carb perfectly. The pipe will come 6",8",10",or 12" 6" or 8" is what most use. You will need a UNI or like for the filter. You will also have to fatten up the main jet or you will lean out the engine. You can also just go with the stock box 2SlickNick offered if you feel the performance is OK for your application. The UNI and jet will give you a bit more power and the engine will run better.

Thanks everyone i have the filter, pipe and the rubber to connect it i just don't know what size jets to use, if you all are using this UNI setup what jets are working for you guys i heard someone say about 8 sizes larger but i truly do not know. The exhaust came today so we are getting closer to the first ride. thanks everyone

Thanks again everybody, as of right now 8:30 a.m. central time I have some time off today to work on the buggys. the carbide is the closest to driving we should be able to test drive it today althought it does need a few things, if i can find a main jet somewhere my wife is heading toward ST. Louis today and there is a place that sells and services karts on her way surly she go by there for me, lol and the top end for the crossfire 150r should be here today. O'yeah i drug home a twister HH 150 yesterday it's in rough shape it has good compression but!!! he gave me 2 new wiring harnesses main body and swingarm he said other than that it just needs a battery and a key switch so we'll see unless life pulls me in every other direction. well here comes the rain and i don't have a lot of shelter from it though i do have some. Thanks again mybe i'll get some pics up today.

SYCARMS, thats funny it's good to see people with a sence of humer i thought you might be Catholic or you just watch a lot of tv, or just messing with the new guy, but i won't hold that against on any of the above. And anyway i called that shop a few towns away and he only had .115 or a .135 so no jets today. Thanks all
