swepzz Posted July 26, 2009 Report Share Posted July 26, 2009 A long time ago i put a boost botle on and never looked back. I've been doing some research latley and saw some people griping about the air leaks that boost botles may impose and the damge it can cause and am considering getting rid of it but i lost the stock manifolds so i started looking around and found these 2 into 1 manifolds for a single carb and am considering this sort of set up. it seems benefitial as 1 carb will supply both cylinders equally and you only need to tune one carb. Can some one please let me in on the ups and downs of this kind of set up? thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheerider1026 Posted July 26, 2009 Report Share Posted July 26, 2009 i love my single carb... after getting it tuned the bikes a runner!!.. you get better throttle response and low end. some argue that its no good at all and youw ill suffer up top in the upper rpms.. mt bike runs great everywhere with it. and its very simple/..

If you want to ditch the boost bottle then just plug the holes in the top of the manifold or replace with a stock cross over tube. I've been running for years with my manifold plugged with no issues. My manifolds are aluminum and I just drilled and tapped 3/8" NPT and put in a stainless steel hex plug with a sealing ring, but you can come up with something simple and clean if your are running a rubber manifold as well. As far as the single carb goes, its all a matter of set up. If your motor is set up for it, it can deliver a lot of low end power with the sacrifice of top end. Snop has done a lot of dyno testing with different carb set ups and a search would likely yield lots of information in this area for you.
