i got a 87 with bored .65 over with dg pipes, boost bottle, 25/280 jets, needle on 5th line, 40:1 mc-1 oil, twist throttle, everything else is stock and it runs great until i hit wot then it cuts out and backfires out the pipes.

could it be the twist throttle opening up the slides to much

lean lean lean lean!!! Fatten up your jets before you melt your motor.

I would suggest a 27.5 pilot and 340(roughly) main jet and move your clip to the 4th position.

well i just got a manuel and i set up the carb with the windows and the cut out in the slides and now it wont idle no matter where i put the idle air screws, would the bigger pilot jets fix that, i live in utah its like 4 to 5000 ft

your air screws are not for idle adjustment. you should have idle screws also. are you running a stock air filter with lid? try a new set of plugs also. your jetting doesn't sound that bad for the elevation and filter system. It could be poping on top because of fouled plugs.
