Realized today the air funnel is missing from my airbox. I figure it's bad not having it. What ill effects will it missing cause? If I should have one does anyone have an extra they want to part with?
Here is a pic of the missing part-

I didn't look close enough to be able to tell why it's not there or how it was removed. I had the air box apart a few months ago and thought it was funny that there was no transistion from the air box into the throttle body. I put it back together and didn't think twice about it. I was looking over the parts manual a few days ago and saw that funnel and realized mine was gone.

Canniboomer, you are mistaken about the ACE airbox. It does retain a velocity funnel, just one of a shorter length. The dirt bikes had a shorter funnel than the quads, is my understanding, and the ACE airbox combines the dirt bike funnel with the quad airbox.
I installed the airbox with no mapping change and noticed a difference immediately.

Thanks guys... perhaps somebody tried a D.I.Y. circumcise of his inlet boot, and messed it up!!...
...or, just another gruesome thought!--- what if it dried up and cracked?, and eventually powdered away and got sucked into the motor!?.. I want to just laugh and say I'm joking, but with these Cannondales, who knows anymore?
