What Carbs to Upgrade With


Nitmare67

Recommended Posts

Just sent off my cyilnders to Gorr Racing for a mid - top end port job. I currently am already running T-5 Toomeys and i know i will need to upgrade my carbs eventually. What size carb should I run for this combo and i would like something easy to dial in or even better yet somebody that can give me some tips if they have similar combos. Thanks alot guys

 

2002 Banshee

Stock stroke with .030 bore

Gorr Racing Mid to Top end Port

Noss Machine Head 20cc Domes

Toomey T-5 Pipes

Boyseen Dual Stage Power Reeds

 

I will run the stock carbs for awhile but hopefully not too long. Would I be better off buying a better reed set first like V force or carbs? Thanks again.

dude one word-Lectrons!!!!!

 

My bansh has similer mods and I have 36mm. Lectrons

 

As far a ease of tuning. NOTHING is easier!! Theres not even jets to mess with. They have adjustable power valves. So all you have to do is turn a screw to go rich or lean.

 

Give Dennis Packard a call. His sight is packardracing.com

 

He custom machines all his Lectrons to your ridding style and mods.

 

Seriously, Lectrons are the only way to go. there sorta spendy, but well worth thew money!!

 

All other brands are just a larger versions of the the same P.O.S. that came stock.

I talked to Eric and he said that 30 mm are the perfect size so thats probley what I will go with. I'll be running the stockers for awhile at first though. Just wondering how much I will have to jet up. He said that usually I wont have to jet up or if i do it wont be much. Im only running 280 mains right now though with my T5s and I see other people with the same combo as me running 300-310s so i think i might try jetting up a bit more to see if it helps.

 

My plugs right now are a tan color and my pistons had some black on them when i pulled it back apart. This top end only has about 4 hours on it so far. One thing I notice is it seems like my plugs arent burning completely. Maybe a bit more than 1/4 of the outer circle of the plug looks new as if there has been no burning taking place there. What does that mean? The strap seems tan though and no signs of heat in the cylinder or anything like its been running lean....

 

Will the V Force 3 reeds really help that much over my dual stage boyseen. I only ask because these reeds also only have about 4 hours on them. Are they going to be worth the 250.00 investment or should I think about adding those with bigger carbs later? I also wonder if with the new reeds and carbs will actually make a pretty noticable improvement. Anyone have similar experiences with add ons? Appreciate the input or even some examples of performance gains. Thanks again guys.

vofrce make a very noticable difference in response ,rpm, torque on bottom end especially over the boysen dual stage reeds,and the deltas arent 250$ its more like 218$ .they are worth that IMO .Bigger carbs will help too ,id get 33 pwks if it were me ,but if eric thinks 30mm is enough topend ,go for it . on a ported she, bigger carbs realy work great IMO as long as you dont get carried away and overcarb your bike :bolt:
