Default Do I need open air intake products?

My Fatbob is equipped with Vance&hines FP3 and High Output slip-on muffler.

The price of open air intake products is about $500 in Korea. So I'd prefer not to buy it.

Nevertheless, there are two reasons why I consider purchasing open air intake products.

1. The 107 stock intake is too large to make it difficult to press the rear brake pedal(I'm 5'5"). Can it be improved if I replace it with this product?




2. If the 107 stock intake is used as it is, would the Fp3 and muffler ruin the 107 M8 engine?

With slip ons you do not need to upgrade your intake

There is also this version which is cheaper than the one you showed. That one is for more built motors than you need.
And yes you will get more leg clearance.
