bansheebman Posted June 5, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2012 motor = stock I have Toomey T5 head pipes and the silencers but i need the jet kit to put them on. THEY ARE NOT ON THE SHEE YET. I also have a k and n air filter, Boysen reeds and I'm pretty sure they are the stock reed cages. The very first upgrade i want to do is the sprockets to optimize my gears in the 1/8Th mile. I have heard that a lot of ppl take off in 2Nd gear or maybe that is just in the sand. I am just starting out and i only plan on racing at our local test and tune style No E.T. at milan dragway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cce12 Posted June 6, 2012 Report Share Posted June 6, 2012 get rid of the 18s and get american racing 19x8x10gt or sd-23... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T_Dilley Posted June 6, 2012 Report Share Posted June 6, 2012 Why not run an 18? I've got a set of 18x9.50x8 Slicks that only weigh 12lbs mounted on .125 Douglas Wheels. Doesn't get much better than that. The less rotating weight the better, its not like you can't adjust your sprockets to compensate for different tire sizes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bansheebman Posted June 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2012 thanks i know for sure i can get brand new kendra slicks that are 18's for 160$ down the street from my work. what do you mean 18/36/35? 18 front 36 or 35 rear. ive heard 17 is hard to pull off without a lot of hp.

The less rotating weight the better, its not like you can't adjust your sprockets to compensate for different tire sizes thats why i use 18" front sprocket go's up to 20-front..33-rear so you got plenty room with sprocket change Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
