> Yep, save your money if you need to and get a full system. the slip ons are not a big deal. Look on ebay, I picked up a FMF Titanium 4 full system with Ti powerbomb header for $350 for my yfz a year back. Giant change in power over my GYTR slip on I had originally on it.

> MX/SX track with little sand: K&N with lid off.  
> MX/SX Track or trail with a little sand and little water: K&N with Outerwears over, lid off  
> Track or trail with lots of water or mud: K&N, Outerwears cover Lid ON.  
> Sandy or loose dirt blowing around: PowerFlow foam filter with prefilter tack applied Lid off.

The K&N is much easier to clean, but takes longer to dry and re-install and go ride. Foam filters are cheap, and you can allways have one or 2 extra, all ready to install and go. But it makes a royal mess in your air box.

foam filters are absolute junk. They rip and wear out within the first 5 times you use them. He just needs to get a K and N with a outerwear and hes all set. For years I have been running this setup and have never had a spec of dirt in my carb boot or a single problem…I wish I could say the same about my dads setup with the foam air filter. He switched over to K and N when countless times dirt would get in and the filter would rip,…not to mention more then a few top dog riders and shops have said to stay away from the foam filters,
