D_Banshee_Man Posted July 9, 2004 Report Share Posted July 9, 2004 Ive been running PC pipes on my 00 Banshee and all i changed is the main jet. Im running the pipes and a K&N with an open airbox. The top end is amazing, but the low end sucks. Is this typical of PC pipes or should i move my needles or change out my pilot jets, or both? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sredish Posted July 9, 2004 Report Share Posted July 9, 2004 You could try richening the needle clip one notch at a time to see if your midrange hits better, if it starts to bog, you know you've gone too far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian G Posted July 12, 2004 Report Share Posted July 12, 2004 What pilot do you have in it, if it is not a 30 or 35 thats why your low end is bad, PC pipes require a very large pilot!!! Leave the needels in the stock 3rd clip. Get some 35 pilots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
banshdog Posted July 12, 2004 Report Share Posted July 12, 2004 My bike did the same, changed the pilots and it made a big difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SICK BOY Posted July 12, 2004 Report Share Posted July 12, 2004 When I had PC pipes I had to run 25's in my 28mm flat slides.I tried to run 30's and it would bog like crazy.Best thing to do is try changing them and see how it is,just remember that not all Banshee run the same way with the same mods.

sredish Posted July 12, 2004 Report Share Posted July 12, 2004 Also, the clip on the needle is more towards 1/2 to 3/4 throttle. The pilot jet will affect the needle up to 1/4 or 3/8 throttle, so if the bog comes on early in the throttle, then the pilot jet could/would be the culprit.

D_Banshee_Man Posted July 28, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2004 Ok, I've been away for a wile but im back and ready to jet! Talked to some pro shops around town and they are ALL saying that i need to lean out by 8% for the altitude that i ride at (7200 FT) and also drop the needle down one position. Less air at altitude = less gas, it makes sence.The question i have is what setup you guys at sea level (or low altitude) running at! Stock '00 Shee PC Pipes K&N Filter w/ no lid what do ya say 280 main??? I gotta get the Shee runnin at full power. My buddy thinks banshees are slow machines!!! GOTTA SHOW HIM THE LIGHT!
