This Malossi knockoff comes with black foam filter media that is very very porous, it's basically just a rock-catcher and much less restrictive than the Malossi red foam. If You do ride on dusty roads You might want to consider using denser media or the Malossi version. Other than the missing Malossi logo and "Made in Italy" print the molding is exactly the same. The quality is not quite as nice but comparable. Save a few $ and use the foam/filter media of Your choice.

I got this because the previous owner of my Vespa had taken the mesh filter out of the stock airbox (what a dummy). After I installed it I had to upjet, so it's probably a little bit faster, but only by 1 or 2 mph. It's a lot louder than stock though.

i haven't run it yet but it's made of tough black plastic, not the thin crap like the stock one, it comes with two big pieces of foam that can definitely be tampered with. it cracks open all nice and fits back together good. looks like it's off a chainsaw or something. sturdy. mad flow. update: the foams go bad and get all fall-aparty after a few months. get good foams.

More air for my carb = more go fast. Works great, easy to replace foam, cant get any better than this.

Had my ride running good with the stock airbox and 13/13 carb. Put this bad boy on, and had to upjet, as it was giving that much more flow!!! Good quality.. Put some kind of oil on the filter mesh before you install it to make sure it catches the dirt and clean it out occaisonly
