I am wanting to put a pipe on my blaster but i'm kind of a newbie to working on my blaster. My mechanic usually puts my stuff on but i kinda think that takes the fun out of it. Do you think i should go for it or get some more experience????

r u guys kidding me?
ok heres how u do it
loosen the silencer bolts by the grab bar
then loosen the airsol clamp on the rubber tubing that connects the header to the silencer.
then remove the silencer
then loosen the exhaust manifolds bolts
remove pipe and exhaust manifold
no put exhaust manifold flange inside ur new fmf pipe or w e kind of pipe.
now bolt the flange back on while the pipe is still on the flange
now take pliers and put a spring from the top of the pipe, the part with the little metal loop and pull the spring and connect it to the cylinder ul figure out where on the cylinder
then slip ur rubber tube and airsol clamp onto the header, dont tighten it yet.
then slip silencer into position put the bolds for the silencer *bolts onto the grab bar) loosly not all the way.
then slide rubber tube from header to cover where the silencer and header meet
then tighten the airsol clamp
then tighten the bolts for the silencer that connect to the grab bar
now take off ur airbox lid
put a bigger jet in the carb
if yours is stock then put a 240 main jet in the carb
now you are done
start ur blaster take her for a spin and youl feel more power and ul get into powerband alot sooner.

iv learned from experiance.
it takes longer BUT you never have a loose fitted header, wich means ur exhaust wont fall off 2 miles from home:-D
when theres 8 inches of snow on the ground
and it hasnt stopped snowing
so they didnt plow
....
yeah been there done that
the flang put onto the header before put on the bike takes an extra 2 seconds but saves u an ass busting push home cuz ur header fell off and wont stay on..
Aftermarket pipes are more efficient, they have less resistance to flow, engines are finicky cridders, they want a very specific air/fuel ratio, the new pipe will allow more air to flow thrue the motor so the fuel jet must be increased to get the air/fuel ratio back to what the engine needs, by just putting on the new pipe it will lean it out, more air needs more fuel, you may find that the 240 jet is still to small?
for an fmf 240 jetting is perfect
idk about what u got but thats what worked back when i had my stock carb
MY brother's Blaster has a 1mm over bore FMF Fatty and Power core silencer and a K&N filter and we have a 290 jet in it!
When I had the stock carb on my Blaster with a 240 cylinder and the same set up I had a 390 jet in it!
So just saying that a 240 will be perfect just plain ignorant, every bike is different and altitude and air temperature all effect the required jetting!
i am in lower ny and 240 fits perfect idk how thick the air is b y u but from the sound of it you must be in death vally!
