I've read that advancing the timing 3-4 degrees will increase the power by about 3 horsepower. I'm sure that on a stock blaster with 12 hp, that would feel pretty good on the butt dyno. I understand that the power increase is down low and a little mid range, but will this mod really hurt the top end that much? Will it feel like it's falling on it's face up top? Just curious. I'm thinking about doing this one as well...
the best way to figure it out would be to do it. there is a DIY and that would be free. then if you dont like it, you could just change it back.
Yeah, that's what I'm thinking. I'll give it a try soon and see how it works out. Swapping the front sprocket would help with any losses on top end, right?
Yep. Changing the sprockets to make up for lost top end is a good idea. The blaster is geared to low anyways
Anyone recommend a good sprocket? I don't know the size of the stock one, so that info would be useful as well.
most on here go for 14 40 gearing, you still have acceleration, but you extend ur top speed, you will lose a little accel, but not really enough to matter , depending on ur riding
Excuse the possible ignorance, but I'm assuming that means 14 teeth for the front sprocket and 40 for the rear? I'm pretty new to all of this...
93 octane can you really fell the diffrence? and how much more top end speed will i get am going about 60 mph right now but how much more with a 14 tooth?
