banshee den Posted July 30, 2014 Report Posted July 30, 2014 im in the looking for new reed I have heard good stuff bout VFORCE and thinking about getting some. right now I have boysen and don't really like the throttle response on them. Quote
salmon_slayer06 Posted July 30, 2014 Report Posted July 30, 2014 just installed the 4's, had the boyesens. it does make a difference. the exhaust sounds a little different or it could be the sound coming from the intake. i did need to trim off the rubber tabs off the intake to make them fit. i used a flat razor blade like the ones used in the box cutters. THe gaskets that come with the reeds are the cheapo paper kind. I like the rubber coated gaskets that cometic makes I didn't have any more so I just coated the paper ones with a thin film of gray RTV and used a gasket between cylinder and reed cage and reed cage and intake. Also use a thread locker on the screws because you do not want this area to suck air it will ruin the motor. I'm always checking to make sure these are still tight. Quote

banshee den Posted July 30, 2014 Author Report Posted July 30, 2014 yeah I know the difference between are and or I noticed that I made the mistake after I posted it. also Idk who Toomey guy is. Quote
toytech Posted July 31, 2014 Report Posted July 31, 2014 don't use silicone rtv, the gas eats that stuff. I use permatex coppercoat on the gaskets. Quote
WINDYCITYJOHN400 Posted July 31, 2014 Report Posted July 31, 2014 Use a torque wrench and the gaskets will work fine 90% of the time. ….unless you never use a torque wrench and have warped the shit outta your intakes. Quote
RadarRacing Posted July 31, 2014 Report Posted July 31, 2014 I have leaks fairly often when using gaskets. Yamabond em. Quote
banshee den Posted July 31, 2014 Author Report Posted July 31, 2014 ok when I get. I will also go get some copper coat Quote
Evans Ward Posted July 31, 2014 Report Posted July 31, 2014 Are VF4 good on a somewhat stock motored Banshee or are they best used for a more modified engine? See any noticeable gains on a close to stocker? Quote
