Days are certainly moving quicker than the items on the to do list. I did get to tick off another item though with picking up my PowerCore Buggy Air Cleaner from Dans Performance Parts (
http://www.dansperformanceparts.com/).
We have heard more than a few horror stories about Dust and Silt and people killing engines. With that in mind we started doing some research into all the options available. The end result of that was selecting one of the 3 stage Powercore Filters Dan has on offer.
I must say when I finally got it in my hands the wait was well worth it and I was very impressed with it. At well under $200 delivered I will certainly be using them on my other buggies in the future.
The entire assembly is only around 15 " long and 8" high, it is very compact and has a pre filter, primary filter and finally an oh crap filter.
To service you remove the top section and simply pull the cartridge backwards to disengage the huge rubber seal.
Once you have the cover off you can remove the primary filter and see the final line of defence. This means that if you do happen to pull the primary in a dusty environment the final line will stop anything getting in.
Lastly all apart, nice seals everywhere, high side intake to avoid issues
The quality is exceptional and it can be mounted on any of the 3 sides. This one is designed to mount vertical but there is also a horizontal model as well. The horizontal model is accessed through the end not side.
I think it will go well on the DualSport and I will make sure I get some pictures of it in use and how much ust we get out of it. Hopefully on some of the shack out runs we will run some grease on the up stream side to test its effectiveness.
Big thumbs up to Dan for helping me out with it, another thing off my list.
