  1. Got it now. Sounds nice . May have found my new pipe setup. Get the best of both world, bottom power of FMF and sound of Toomey
  2. You will need to get a cable for the thumb throttle. ToomeyRacing or Vitos bothhave them for about $20.00. Josh
  3. What do we need to do listen to this file Thanks---------Josh
  4. You might be able to match it up by appearance or part# on a carb website check out link below ((-----click here-----))
  5. Shouldn't need to change jetting but its always a good idea to check the plugs after a short ride with any mod. For installing the new head its not to hard. As much as I hate to send you to bluetraxx they do have a good "how to" on a head install. Only diference would be with the NOSS head you don't have to change the head studs, so for that reason alone I would buy the NOSS over PRO DESEIGH. ((------click here------))
  6. Here's another option thats a little more expesive but nice, or might give you some more ideas, check ot the mechanical gauge (no electronics so it would be great for the SHEE) ((------J&T products------))
  7. Here's my thought's on chains. First is when a chain stretches to the point if removing a link its time to replace it, when replacing the chain always replace the spockets at the same time. I highly recomend DID-Xring chains and any decent sprocket, I have run SUNSTAR and AFAM with good luck. After install and first adjust keep it clean and lubed and make sure you don't adjust it to tight that will wear a chain faster than anything, if any thing leave it a tiny bit loose. When you adjust a chain to tight you don't allow enough room in the chain for the suspension to travel so when it does it stetches the crap out of the chain so it has room to travel. Almost every chain stretch problem I have seen is due to this. I have run DID-Xrings on my last 2 dirt bikes and after the first breakin adjust they have never stetched again, first one I actually sold the bike with it still on there after desert racing on it for 1.5 seasons, the current one has about 2 Years non race time on a YZ400F dirt bike and still has not stretched, and it has about 15 more horse and a ton more torque than a stock SHEE.
  8. All of three of these were rides on other peoples bikes, So who knows if they were jetted correctly, wich might have changed my impression of them. Well the T6 was a good improvement over stock but not what I expected, still a good smooth power band The Fatty was similar, but from what everyone says it has more potential with other mods The T5 was totally different, The thing had no bottom end but once it hit about 3 to 4 thousand RPM HOLD ON So I guess what I Keep hoping for is a pipe that has the bottom of the fmf with the mid top of the T5. I know its wishful thinking but one can wish can't he? By the way I live at 5300 ft in elevation so compression is a problem up here. Maybe some one can help me on this one. Does anyone think if I got T5's and bumped my compression up to 145 PSI (from 100 PSI due tue elevation) that the T5's would have equal to or more bottom than stock? Hope that helped, And thanks for the opinions---------Josh
  9. I havn't ever tried type F maybe thats the way to go I only tried dexron and didn't like it due to having to adjust the clutch alot more than normal. I know what you mean about Gearsaver looking like ATF, but it doesn't seem to wear the clutch like the DEX did. So maybe Its more like Type F . Might have to try it out
  10. I've tried it back when I raced dirt bikes, and it seemed like it wore the clutch fast. ATF does not have the lubricating properties that oil does, I usually either run BELRAY 85W gearsaver or a good quality 10W30 motor oil, However ATF does have a lot of detergent in it and works great run for very short times to clean up the trani, and will also help swell up seeping gaskets.
  11. Hey ledofthezep if you could can you give your impression on the power band w/PC's? I'm trying to decide on wich pipes to get, I have ridden on T5's, T6's and Fatties but not PC's and it is one that I'm thinking about. Maybe list some of the differences between the ones I've listed if you have ridden any of them. Thanks a Bunch---------Josh Sorry for bargin in on your thread Banshee17Racing
  12. Man those things look Huge when mounted to the bars
  13. If I'm correct the GYTR filter goes on the stock filter cage not allowing you to remove the airbox lid wich will restrict your air flow. If you want the most air flow with out sacrafising protection I would get the Pro Design adapter with UNI filter and take the lid off then rejet, Rocky Mountain has then for $89.99 P/N=49-551 Good Luck----Josh
  14. Yes and no if you ride in alot of muddy ot wet conditions its usually best to keep the airbox but you can still take the lid off or cut part of it off like sredish said or install some airbox vents. No matter what I recomend an air box adapter and a K&N or UNI foam filter Next option would be clamp on K&N's direct to filter, Flows a tiny bit more but not as good of filtering, generally recomended for duning and sandy areas not very good for extremely dusty or wet areas. Just make sure to check your jetting no matter whick way you go Good Luck -------Josh
