Title: aluminium breather box to replace the Berg breather box Post by: Phil West on February 27, 2008, 10:38:05 am Anyone know where I can get an aluminium box to replace the standard Berg breather/oil filler box, which is far too heavy a grade of steel to just catch air.
I hear Tim Tesnow in the States may do them, anyone have a contact/email/website for him?

A mate of mine in the west midlands has made his own breather tower, and I think it's an aluminium one. I'll send him a text.

Ok, so it can have as many intakes as you want but where does it let the air out, the little hole in the cap?

Tobi Title: Re: aluminium breather box to replace the Berg breather box Post by: Phil West on March 06, 2008, 18:26:54 pm Hi all, many thanks for your responses. I looked at CSP's website and couldn't see a tower box like the Berg one. Udo yours looks great, but yes I would need to have a top tube to put my Berg beather cap on. Perhaps Sil could make one like that.
Joe - this is just for street mode - of course there's plenty kilos to come off in full race mode. Also looking at a vacuum pump for race mode, apparently there's 10 horse to be gained!
