What Carb Jets for Cb400f with Pods

I am buying some air pods (possibly veloc stacks) for my CB400f brat build - curious if I need new jets and if so, what size.

I am in southern california at sea level. Thanks
 
Probably 105 max, usually a little smaller.
Totally dependent on exhaust
If you have the cash, get K&N filters, they just fit and work better than 'Chinese' ones
 
Actually just ordered some stacks from steel dragon performance. Word on the street is that they're much easier to tune than pods on the 400f.

Exhaust is 4-1, I believe stock.

Any additional suggestions?

Which street would that be?
 
The information super-highway ;D

Are you saying it's not true? During my research I came across several threads on various forums that all seemed to share this sentiment, including a thread from this one: http://www.dotheton.com/forum/index.php?topic=26781.20

One guess why Mr Honda fitted a proper air box?

I don't know. If there's one thing I've learned over the years from tuning my cars & bikes it's that stock vehicles are NEVER optimally tuned when it comes to engine breathing. Intake/exhaust is usually the first place I look for extra HP... including the ///M cars I've owned.

Any guesses why Mr Rickman used stacks?

Here's the deal. This build is not for go, it's all show. I have enough other bikes for that. I bought stacks and that's what I intend on using. If you've successfully tuned a CB400f with either pods or stacks and can give me recommendations for jet sizes, it's much appreciated. Otherwise I'm just going to order a few sizes and play around. But would rather not waste that time if I don't need to.

Not trying to be a dick but I'm not looking for someone to tell me what style I should build my bike.
