mercury65 Posted July 5, 2008 Report Posted July 5, 2008 (edited) if you buy a new set of toomey pipes they come with new needles, wonder why? because u need more mid range fuel changing the clip changes the timing of it not the amount. so just dont rejet get new needles.

Either work fine. Stock or Toomey or Vitos. Toomey and Vitos claim they are richer in the midrange where they need to be if you have Pod filters. I was able to dyno tune my 4 mil cub on stock carbs and T5 pipes with an A/F Meter and the needle was just fine.... Stuart Toomey may make very nice pipes. No doubt there. But he's about as helpful as a wet dishrag after that. I asked him what the difference was between his dynojet needles and stockers were, and his straight up answer was "Dynojet cuts them to our spec for our pipes" He couldn't/wouldn't tell me any more than that. I asked him how well his T5 pipes would work with a cub cylinder, his reply was he didn't know what a cub cylinder was.... I know he's been in the biz a long time, longer than most of us have been riding....I just wasn't impressed with his how broad his knowledge base was for a man that's been in this sport so long.
