  1. You have it backwards. By reworking your head (notice that head was singular not plural) you will gain more compession. More compression equals more power but will also cause detonation if the octane level is not raised by using the appropriate octane fuel for your application.
  2. I have both the fmf sst pipes and the dmc 916 setup. I ride mostly tight trails and I think the dmc setup is better then the fmf sst. Not by much but it definitely is. Also sounds better. I can't speak for any other setup though.
  3. Clean and sync the carbs especially the pilot jets. I would also do a leak and compression test.
  4. Thanks for the replies. I will do all of the above
  5. I just bought a Mattoon machine timing plate and was just curious if there is any maintenance I should take care of while I have the cover off to install it?
  6. I would order from the site but I have no idea what to order. You can't just pick a coil for a banshee on the site
  7. I tried his website. Says out of stock
  8. Anybody know where I can get a nology coil and wires from? I've looked all over and can't seem to find any
  9. Smaller dome =more compression and larger dome =less compression. More compression = more power. There's a lot more to it then that but that's the basics I guess
  10. Awesome. Thanks for your input!

  12. The rims im looking at buying have a reinforcement ring on the outside so if i flipped it they would look odd with the ring out on the fronts and the ring in on the rears. if I bought 6/3 offset for the rear would they still stick out a bit more then the factory rims with out having to flip them with the ring facing inwards?
  13. I have +2 arms so in the front id like to stay at standard width and in the back I have the stock axle so id like to go with a offset rim that gives me a bit more width to get closer to the width of the front. For the fronts im thinking 3+2 Offset 10 x 5 with a bolt pattern of 4 on 156 that is factory spec right? For the rears im not sure how offset works but i have the option of 8x8.5 3+5.5 Offset or 9x9 3+6 offset. Which rear rim would give me a wider stance?
  14. Acid etching will have a good chance of attacking the parent material much more aggressively then the chrome. I would not go this route. Plus you would have to dispose of a large quantity of hydrochloric acid or what ever you would choose to use which is a pain.
  15. I see where I went wrong now. I thought the base ring was the ring on the porcelain but its actually the ring at the end of the plug closest to the piston at the end of the threaded portion. However I'm now confused because if you look at the first pic I posted the base ring has no color at all. It seems to run fine though so I'll stop beating the subject to death
  16. OK I will leave it where it is at then. Thank you for the replies
  17. I was following the direction of this link http://www.dfn.com/agservices/jetfaq.html and it specifically states that a plug chop for the idle circuit can be done and I followed it to the letter. Since I cannot hear a difference in idle speed while adjusting the air screw (keep in mind my hearing is not the greatest) I need another way to verify where its at. That's why I tried the plug chop. Is there a reason why theres no way to plug chop the idle circuit? Is there a better way to go about this?
  18. Now 2 turns out on air screw and 12 minutes of idle
  19. Most people probably wouldn't but I tried adjusting the air screw for highest idle and I can't notice a difference either way so I decided a plug chop would take the guess work out of the idle air mixture
  20. Also it kicks over easier then when I was running 27.5 pilots. Usually 1st or second kick
  21. I'm trying to dial in my idle so I did a plug chop. Installed fresh plugs into the warmed up engine, let idle for ten minutes then shut it down. And from the other side of the same porcelain I'm now running k&n pods DMC 916 exhaust, vf4 , stock carbs without tors, 30 pilot 290 main and needle in the 4th position from bottom, 2.5 turns out on air screws 800ft elevation 68* I thought a 30 pilot would put me on the rich side but looking at the chop I would say it looks lean right? Also only one side of the porcelain has color and I'm not sure why that is. Any help would really be appreciated. Thanks
