Hi, u can buy the mesh on Amazon and cut it, same with the safety corner gum. I think, u dont need the mesh, but its better to let out the sound. No flash needed, youtuber 1000ps gets the bike on the dyno with open airbox and measured +8 PS. The bike needs some time to learn and adapt. I use the original filter to avoid problems with running to lean. The bigest difference is on the top when the engine needs more air, and the sound ist amazing.
If I understood correctly, you did not change the filter, you kept the original filter. On the other hand, you removed the plastic fairings from the air box and you put a metal mesh instead, so that the sound diffuses better? Is it easy to do?
U understood it correctly, it was easy, three clips holds the side plastic. Copy the form to the mesh, secure the mesh edges and push it in the sides. I was last week at service, the mechanic take the Moped to a ride and check. The sound was, as somebody take off the the exhaust. THe difference is big. The positive is, u can ride quiet when u want.
DNA Filter. Where does the frame part of your wording come from? Has it made much of a difference to the intake noise? When the seat is back on I mean.
I use only the frame, the frame comes from Greece. The difference in sound is massive, i would say, its to loud. The part is listed on Ebay. Its a big upgrade for little money.
