You can hear this tying suck air OVER the pipes at a stop.Like pulling the air cleaner off the old 455
It sounds sooooo bad ass...just another thing to turn some heads.
I love mine!!!
and Thanks for the kudos!

I dig it, but I'm part of the blacked out brigade as well, I'm headed toward a matte finish black paint job myself. Cool stuff, Indian Jim

Agreed. I was thinking last night that it might be cool to have a chrome Tornado so that the chrome exhaust pipes and intake are next to each other. But then, for contrast, get a black air filter. That might just be the ticket for my bike

I assume your bike is black with stock pipes (modified or not

), so I'm really looking forward to your pics. Thanks!

yep. black. stock. I really like black and chrome but I'm not putting any of those stupid aftermarket chrome bits on I think those are cheesy.

diamond_jim · 07-12-2008, 02:11 PM

Looks great, IndiaJim. A sweet touch would be to paint the tube gloss black to match the rest of the black on the bike.

Nice, did you just take the chrome air filter and cover and paint them gloss black?

~ alexg

adricon · 07-13-2008, 01:55 AM

It was a chrome intake and flat black cover. I had it sandblasted and powder coated gloss black to match motor.

RED-M · 07-14-2008, 12:27 AM

i'm partial to the chrome...here's mine...

cardude720 · 07-14-2008, 12:36 AM

where is everone getting these K & N "socks" for the filter portion? Is it just for looks or functional as well?

Got mine from ... Phat Performance Parts - Great Parts, Great Prices, Great Service, Great Website

it is water RESISTANT and helps keep larger debris out of filter.

Thanks, Red, I think I'll definitely go with the chrome pipe and black cover. Now to just figure out how to sneak a $400ish expense (Tornado + PCIII or Fi2000) past the wife

I very much like the look. The hypercharger sounds like a good idea but I don't like the chrome - if only you could get the black crackle finish hypercharger.

The black Tornado looks the business. Next 'upgrade' on my list.

cardude720 · 07-15-2008, 10:52 AM

just to let anyone ordering a tornado or "type A" adapter that it will be awhile. i ordered mine on the 9th of July and its only shipping out from thunder about august 1st. the guy i talked to says they are slammed this time of year. maybe better if u wait till winter...

alexg57 · 07-17-2008, 02:41 AM

I haven't been able to find an M50 (or even Suzuki) compatible Corsair Air Filter. Too bad - I think they look even better than the Tornado!

hey alex.....
