I highly suggest the ex shock. And for a mod that will cost you all of $2 the do the removal of the airbox lid is a night and day difference, the jet changing is simple to, but there are lots of threads to tell you how to do it on the site, just give the search button a little visit. Also, if the stick on your quad isn't lying and you have a k&n filter, i suggest getting a skin for it if u take the lid off, the k&n style filter doesn't filter quite as well as a foam filter. A UNI is on my wishlist for sure. Anyways, welcome to the forum, may the mod bug be with you
