qboronyrican Posted February 24, 2008 Report Posted February 24, 2008 take off the stator cover, then using a puller pull off the flywheel, then lossen the bolt that hold the adjustable stator plate and set it to what you want....tighten the bolts replace the flywheel and the cover and your done.....hope i didnt forget anything Quote

On the right of it while looking at it, there is a gauge on it. Loosen the bolts to twist the plate with the setting you want (usually 0 to +5) by lining it up with the split in your case. Use locktite when putting it all back together...don't want any screws flying around in there... Eric Quote

sinisterboo Posted February 27, 2008 Report Posted February 27, 2008 post up with your mods, or nobody will know which way to point you as far as where to set your timing. Quote

sinisterboo Posted February 27, 2008 Report Posted February 27, 2008 well +4 sounds like a good start. try it and if you are at 0 now, you will notice a difference immediately. you could go up, but you have to listen for noise, and watch the plugs for signs of detonation. that is why these guys run race fuel because with the higher compression, and more timing, they need higher octane to prevent it. but in my opinion, you would be fine at 4 degrees, over that and you risk damage if your not experienced with tuning.

raptor 660 r Posted February 27, 2008 Report Posted February 27, 2008 thanks alot bro its my first shee and i ride it in all enviorments as i do with my raptor and im new to tuning a shee. i can tune 4 stroke carbs and a basic blaster card but thats about it Quote
Rex789 Posted February 27, 2008 Report Posted February 27, 2008 ive done every bolt on mod except for an adjustable timing plate and it sounds like its kind of tough to do. im going to go with the pro-design one. id like to put one on my shee but i dont want to fuck anything up. how long would it take me to do this? and do you think if i put on a noss coolhead with no problems (just very time consuming) that i would be able to install an adjustable timing plate with no problems as well? ive been reading up and i know i have to get a flywheel puller, ive also read about it on the banshee electrical faq and thats what confused me and made me want to wait to get it installed by a builded when i get my shee ported and the flywheel lightened but i want to get the power advantage asap instead of wait till the end of summer when im gettign my shee rebuilt. how long and difficult do you think this mod will take to install?
