racer Posted August 5, 2005 Report Share Posted August 5, 2005 (edited) advance your timing ($35 for a plate), bump your compression up ($75ish), and lighten your flywheel (60ish). easy cheap mods will significant gains. is your avatar from the boondock saints?

ShamRok Posted August 6, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 6, 2005 yeah it is the saints. i do have k&ns on it how can i bump the compression Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenBB Posted August 6, 2005 Report Share Posted August 6, 2005 To increase the compression take the head to a machine shop and have them shave .030" off the gasket surface (assuming it's stock and hasn't already been shaved, and you'll need to remove the water neck first-just 2 bolts). I love cheap hp, 2 strokes have no competition there...and the basics are all the same. As mentioned, increasing compression, increasing airflow, advancing timing, and lightening reciprocating mass (and any other nonessential crap on the quad) are the way to go, since you already have pipes & filter you can: Shave the head Advance timing (degree key or slot the stator plate yourself) Reeds & cages (you can port your stock cages) Dial in the jetting (jets are cheap) Polish the exhaust port Smooth out castings on intake ports (not polished) Break it in carefully Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iceman Posted August 6, 2005 Report Share Posted August 6, 2005 can you still run pump gas if you up the compression? I thought you had to run race gas once you went higher than stock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunsmoor86 Posted August 6, 2005 Report Share Posted August 6, 2005 No, you can run pump gas if you are below 160psi in which shaving the head .30 you would still be under. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
