bigger carb to stock boot

[jfblasterboy65]

Im getting a bigger carb for my blaster im not sure how big it is yet im buying it off a guy on here and my question is I know im prob gonna dremel out my boot that goes to the jug to accomadate that side and save me a few bucks but what about the side that runs from the air box to the carb is there a way that a 34mm carb could work with that?

you can use any type of rubber tubing.. think outside the box.

they have said on here they have done it, but i sized it up when i bought my 34mm and there was no way it was going to work, i a sure one of the guys on here will explain how to do it, good luck.

yea thanx thats what i was trying to figure out the only way i could c is if i get a tube from home depot and run it into the stock tube and maybe cut the stock one a lil so it will fit im just trying to use my head and if neone who has done it has pics would be awesome

ive seen pics of it done.. i dont know if it was a 34 tho..
id suggest getting the boot and the motor side and getting some hose fror the airbox side or run a k&n off the carb. like i did at first..

well the OD of my carb is 2" so i went to the hardware store and got some 2" OD PVC pipe and a 2" rubber sewer coupling...

I took my carb boot and cut it back so that the PVC pipe fits snugly into it clamped it down with a hose clamp...

you will need to try to install it, bend the PVC pipe a little then try again until it is bent to the same angle as the carb and then you need to take the coupling slide it onto the PVC pipe and then slide it over the carb and tighten it down with 2 hose clamps

well, i just cut the stock boot back until the ID was 2"... I dont know how far
and im not sure how long the PVC pipe is... you will have the PVC in your hand... so just cut it how long you need it..
and the coupler was 5" long

and in total i used 5 hose clamps

 

[jfblasterboy65]

alright man thanx as soon as i get my carb and everything i give this a whirl does it work and hold up pretty good?

 

[tjsdaname]

yeah it is actually more secure than the stock setup lol

heres the trick, go to the local muffler shop, they will have a piece of 2" muffler tubing, take your carb and they can neck it down or up to be a perfect match. then just cut the airboot back as mentioned, silicon the hell out of it and clamp it together. a 250r airbox can be made to fit and work very easily., just try and avoid the 86 if possible, because that had an intake resonator. the muffler tubing will fit better and without that big pvc lip will flow better. when looking at the aftermarket airboxs, stay away from the ones with the narrow necks and and sharp chop saw curves. the best ones will taper and have smooth radiuses
