jesse1004 Posted April 7, 2006 Report Share Posted April 7, 2006 Hi my names jesse and im a bansheeholic . j/k I have just got done redoing a banshee. This is my first 2 stroke and I can safely say I will never ride a 4poke again. I got boysen reeds,reed spacers, t-5's, lightened flywheel, +4 advance, prolite rings and pistons, moded reed cages,boost bottle, and open air box. The porting and the carbs are next. I am looking for the best bottom end. Honestly, I'm rarely higher than 4th gear unless were in the river(platte river=no water). Do I go with 2 good carbs or the 2 to 1 setup. And which carb size and make would be suffecient. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPEN Posted April 7, 2006 Report Share Posted April 7, 2006 From what I have seen on here and my personal experience I would say the 2 into1 is probably what you would want. Had great lowend, is easy to tune and really cleans up the bike. RIPPEN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Banshee17Racing Posted April 7, 2006 Report Share Posted April 7, 2006 So, are you usually riding trails/woods? What type of port did you plan on getting? My opinion is that unless your trying to extract EVERY little HP you can, go with the duals...otherwise get a 2 into 1. I would look into getting a used set up on ebay w/ a 35mm Keihin PWK. You see a lot of Trinity Stage IV's there, but if I did it over again I would look for a Graydon Proline intake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wallrat Posted April 7, 2006 Report Share Posted April 7, 2006 2 into 1 is a good mod for everybody except draggers. Yup, I said it. Trinity has the only manifold I know of on the market, and its okay. I'd second the graydon style intake. Better design IMO. Graydon went out of business awhile back but you still see their parts pop up on ebay or the HQ 4sale section fairly often. I made my own graydon out of 1.5" aluminum tube and 1/4" aluminum plate. With regards to carb size, the general rule of thumb is 33 for non ported or 35 for ported. Kinda goes along the same lines of T5 vs T6 pipes. Why get one that won't work well for future mods when the other will work fine now and down the road? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
banshee_08 Posted April 7, 2006 Report Share Posted April 7, 2006 with the trinity 2 into 1 carb i know ull get better low end but will you loose top end? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wallrat Posted April 7, 2006 Report Share Posted April 7, 2006 If you do its really negligible. Well actually I'd say it depends on what you had before. I did my 2:1 originally when I did a bunch of other mods so I can't really compare to stock. On my stroker, I felt like I lost a bit on top but it wasn't anything I'll miss. The benefits of the single carb are definately worth that tiny bit of top end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jesse1004 Posted April 7, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2006 (edited) Yes its mostly trails and woods riding in these parts and I plan on getting a mx type port. And as far as losing a little top end I could care less, for me its not how you can go but how you get there.

fastbanshee4u Posted April 7, 2006 Report Share Posted April 7, 2006 Save your money and keep the stock carbs,just install throttle overide kit.Your money can be spent in other places for better gains.Like suspension,steering stabilizer.Stock carbs are not bad,or Yamaha would have not used them for so many years.

jesse1004 Posted April 7, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2006 what the hell is a throttle override kit????????? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wallrat Posted April 7, 2006 Report Share Posted April 7, 2006 I'm thinking he means a TORS removal kit? Regardless, the single carb is one of the better mods I've done IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
80overShee Posted April 7, 2006 Report Share Posted April 7, 2006 Stock carbs are not bad,or Yamaha would have not used them for so many years. 498898[/snapback] And yet they used the same restrictive pipes for the entire design and the same horrific TORS design. Just because it was used for years doesn't mean it was "good enough". Almost every vehicle manufacturer still uses a paper air filter in every vehicle even though it is proven that a reuseable, washable fabric style (K&N, Airaid..etc) improve power AND fuel mileage. But stock must be good because they've used them for years right? There is a reason aftermarket companies are in business... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They also used the same suspension too since what 89??? I agree with Wallrat, I think in your case it would work good for you. I actually have a buddy that was talkin about sellin his 38mm setup so if your interested in a price and pics let me know. RIPPEN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NECK Posted April 7, 2006 Report Share Posted April 7, 2006 I put the 35mm kit with 2 into1 carb setup on my bike this winter, along with a 1 tooth smaller front sprocket. My mods are: Toomey T6's +5 adv. timing NOSS cool heads 19cc domes K&N The new setup has 100% more bottom end now. Excellent for hillclimbs, trails, etc. I do have to shift alot more now that I run out of gear quicker, but it's worth all the added bottom end. My power band is not as smooth now, but i'm looking for a cure for that. My .02 anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheenut05mx Posted April 8, 2006 Report Share Posted April 8, 2006 I agree with FASTBANSHEE4U. Leave the stock carbs and do some suspension mods and you'll notice a lot more gain than you would with more engine mods. The stock machine cant handle and use the power that the engine has stock.
