It all depends how deep your wallet is.A good place to start is always making your engine breath easier .I would get a k,n with outwear and depending if your gonna be riding in deep water or not ,I would drill a few 1" hole in the air box cover,this will help your intake alot .I would also go with a good aftermarket exust like a fmf ,biggun,or whitebros, any of these will help with your power gains. Just remember that it is very important that you rejet your carb for the added air flow ,I would sudjest a 148 to 150 main jet size depending an your altitude.And after if your still want more power I would go with a 10.1 wisco piston kit ,with that piston you can still run on pump gas.If you still want more then go with a drop in cam from webcam ,this will give you even more torque and midrange ,if you want a screemin top end go with there 450lift cam ,But bewar that the 450cam needs the titaniaum valve spring and retainer kit and you engine head will have too be machined for clarence of the rocker arms.Well I hope this all helps,Have fun hotroding.

I would imagen ether the whitebros or the fmf because they have the disks that you can tune .less disks more backpresser=more torque And more disks less backpresser=more topend but with more niose.

I have always had 2 strokes til now so i am not too familiar with performance mods on a 4 stroke has any one tried any alba stuff they have quite a list of parts for the wolverine. i will be riding in deep mud mud and water so i want more grunt for the buck. top end is not too important exept for the occasional road or two. the 25" blackwaters take a lot to turn and just need more umph it will never be a banshee i know but any suggestions will be a great help thanks all

Four Stroke Technology will increase displacment to 500cc, and add manual clutch if you want. Check out the June 2000 issue of DirtWheels magazine, they have an article on it.
