OK so I ordered the K&N and the airbox lid. What else do I need to do to (cheaply) increase the airflow. I noticed that the new XBs have a vent around the fuel filler. Should I vent mine (With a drill) or is the through frame snorkel good enough. Yes I have a modded pipe and yes I am ecm spying. Thanks!

I drilled out one of my covers like you mention and I took the center (of the black part around the filler) out of another one with a coping saw and files. I like the latter better. You need to toss the rubber snorkle if you haven't yet.
