I'm currently running 2 proks w pre wraps but I'm trying to piece together a stocker.

I'm sick of broken proks and worn out pre wraps.

Tau Ceti's of course. What else is there? I wouldn't run a stock air filter on my musclecar!! It's like building a 1000 horsepower HEMI and putting a stock air filter on it.

what's the point of all that power if you are always getting water in the carb?

Going to an after market filter will not add power in a watercraft, much different than a car. A stock watercraft flame arrestor is just wire mesh like the after market ones. No difference in air flow. In a watercraft (or even a boat for that mater) it is refered to as a "Flame arrestor" because it stops a flame in case of a back fire. There doesn't need to be a fine filtration system like a car, because there should be no dust on a lake or ocean, and by the time that stuff were to get in the motor compartment it would stick to the water arround the hull/motor. I'm not saying that there is no filtration provided, but it is much more minimal than on a car.

It seems funny when people put a K&N on a ski, because #1 the finer pores make it more restrictive #2 the filter is made of cotton, just absorbs water.

I had a set of Tau Ceti's on my B1, the stock filter actually had a more porus mesh, prob flowed more air.

And to the question of the post, Stocker will keep out the most water.

Speak up ,don't kiss azz
Stock ,I had some K & N's before but they were junk .the first time a little water splashed on them the motor would bog out from lack of air .
So they were good for about 1 minute of riding :frown: they cost me $60 each too.

Stock here too: never had a reason to change. The purpose is to keep water out and flames in, nothing more. Stock does a great job at both.
