Air filters with the whole assembly?? Right now I just have the stock revo one on my OS .21 and I'm sure that is chocking it off at least a little bit. I won't have time to run to Al's before work today so I wanted to pick one up at the track....

It's hard to tell what they have since you can't really see what's hanging up.

I didn't know if anyone knew off hand. I would need filter oil or at least be able to borrow enough to do one filter. If the track shop doesn't have any is there anyone swinging by a hobby shop today that would be able to pick something up and I could pay them at the track??? I was thinking of going with the RB setup... I can't remember how much that was. Any other reccomendations??

Dremel out the sides of the stock revo housing to allow more flow.

*Bows to the wise one* LoL If I can I would like to get a nice 1/8 scale setup though... and probably with a pre-filter. If I dremel a hole in the side then air going in there bypasses the first portion of the filter. It could allow more crap into the motor... if you know what I mean...

Damn. I called LH and they said that they don't have it...

rocco79 · (#11 (**permalink**))

Ok, did you ask what other 1/8 air filters they had????

FreeRideFrosty · (#12 (**permalink**))

No because witout seeing them I don't know enough about each one to pick one out over the phone. Whoever I talked to seem really confused too...

Standard Revo filter is super thick because they know noobs are gonna clean it once a month not once a day. Opening up the sides of the plastic holder housing is fine.

Man does anyone have an air fliter to sell this guy?!?!?!?

Call back and ask What 1/8 air filter assemblies they DO have! Or go on a- main hobbies and look at the filters real quick. Pick one you like and call LH and give them the part #!!!
