LS3 Machine Posted June 16, 2011 Report Posted June 16, 2011 (edited) Well after researching here on BHQ, I finally got my parts together for my first round of mods on my 2009 Banshee. Thanks to everyone here that gave advise, and I will post my results with pics here, along with lessons learned so that other BHQ newbs like myself can learn as well. My strategy for the upgrades are like this: 1. Bolt on the T5s 2. Pull the carbs, one at a time, and do the TORS mod to them and re-jet per the Toomey jet kit 3. Re-assemble and test it out for a good ride 4. Add the cool head and test it out. 5. Add the dyna FS timing box and test it out. Stage 1 complete. If anyone has any last minute pointers, I would appreciate it, as Im heading out to the garage today. Stage 1 parts: Bonus! Here is a preview of Stage 2 parts: Edited June 16, 2011 by LS3 Machine Quote
Jereme6655 Posted June 16, 2011 Report Posted June 16, 2011 tim......i hate you now because of your 2nd stage hahahahahaha.... looks like some nice parts you got there buddy.......the pipes alone will make that thing pick up quite a bit... Quote

Don't hate the playa... hate the game! I completely understand Jereme... Im hoping the Pipes and Cool head will get me 10-15 additional HP? I better get out to the garage... these parts aren't going to install themselves. Tim Quote
dirtydownunder Posted June 16, 2011 Report Posted June 16, 2011 awesome first stage in one hit !!!!!. will be a totally new, awesomer bike combine stg 1 and 2, dont wait use vasoline on the head orings to keep them in place when installing. Quote
toytech Posted June 16, 2011 Report Posted June 16, 2011 looks like some great mods! I like the handlebars Quote
Larry's Shee Posted June 16, 2011 Report Posted June 16, 2011 http://bansheehq.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=99361 Look through this for simular set-up for your jetting. Start with the richist and work your way down. Someone here will also help. Those pipes look better than my son's $35 FMF Golds Quote
LS3 Machine Posted June 16, 2011 Author Report Posted June 16, 2011 so stage 1 is T5 and cool head, what size domes you running in the head? you should think about adding a timing plate and bumping the timing up a little. you should easily see 15hp depend on domes with all 3 of these mods. hint hint, i have a stock timing plate modded for +4 lol. also stage 2, looks like elka, the flexx bars, and maybe SS brake lines. give up more info on it. 21cc domes. The premium gas here in Saudi Arabia is like 91 Octane. The first pic shows the dynatech digital ignition (no timing plate currently planned). Yes (what Im calling) Stage 2 is Elkas with +1/+2 LSR A Arms, G force +2 Axle, the brake lines and the Flexx bars. Quote
Duneman101 Posted June 16, 2011 Report Posted June 16, 2011 DAMN dude! I am fuckin JEALOUS as hell! make sure you get some pics up after the additions! Quote
Loc Posted June 16, 2011 Report Posted June 16, 2011 If it were me I would just install the cool head while you have the pipes off. It will be less work for you. You are going to like the T5. They are great. What is your elevation? I am thinking you could gain some compression by going to a smaller dome. Just my opinion. Quote
dcalsv02 Posted June 16, 2011 Report Posted June 16, 2011 bump on the timing plate reccommendation. I would throw on a timing plate this round as well. It will crisp up your throttle response. Quote
Jereme6655 Posted June 17, 2011 Report Posted June 17, 2011 Wait till you get to Stage 10, that's when shit gets FUN. ps...... FUN = selling off everything else you have to afford the addiction of 2stroke orgasms........its like crack...but legal. Depending where your launching it.....hahaha Quote

LS3 Machine Posted June 19, 2011 Author Report Posted June 19, 2011 hit up kevin at herr jugs racing and get some porting for your cylinders to go with all the bolt-on goodies... Eventually that is the plan. But I want to finish this round of upgrades, including the suspension, and ride it for a while and see how it is. Thanks for the feedback! Quote
