what is the best high performance air filter for the trx 2.5?

i always use the motor saver (or motor saver style) filters. the cylinder ones. but whatever you do DO NOT use the k&n style ones.

what else are good air filters? what about the rb innovations cool air intake?

 

[beason]

imo the cold air is a waist of time. i tryed one. couldnt get my truck to run for crap. the motorsaver filters are imo the best. there designed to do what they do. not some stuff stuck together from cars, lawn mowers, and bits of pipe

Yeah that cold air intake stuff is just gimmick crap for the ricer rc'ers.. I 2nd the motor saver. Sweet filters!

ROFL he siad ricer rc'ers that is insanely funny!

btw dont buy the motorsaver revo filter, buy the motorsaver 1/8 truck filter and mod it to fit the stock intake tube, by far its the best choice, here a link on how to mod the filter

btw the 1/8 truck filter is the same as the revo one cept it has a pre filter

Keepitsideways, thanks for the website. It's great !! I'm not familiar with R/C so it's perfect for someone like me. Great for anyone. You should make everyone aware of it. Thank you.

Keepitsideways you can buy the prefilters separately.....you'll need to anyway, they don't last forever ya know.....

Can you just buy the neck for a motorsaver air filter? My spur gear ate a hole in mine after my latest crash (engine mount broke, forcing the engine to tilt forward and rub the air filter neck on the spur gear)

The hole is really small, but none the less, there is a hole. Is there possibly a way to repair it?

Shoe-Goo

Yep...Shoe-Goo...That will patch the hole alright. Or any good rubber epoxy...Any automotive store should have a good fix for you for that kind of epoxy.
