I look into his drag pipe also, and he was telling me it was very loud.....so I had to pass. It would be nice to have the money to buy it and just use it for draging.....that is if I did not have to rejet every time I put it on. Are you staying with your stock header?

What other mods do you have rob(by the way, why don't you write your pred in your sig. so we don't have to keep asking this)?? I'll help you jet it, if I know what you have done.



Next on your list of mods: Nicholas cycle carb mods, Rath racing header(If you don't already have these)......they are both great mods, you won't believe it!!!!

oh ok......then yeah, you probably aren't too far off with the 160 main jet. I don't know for sure what piliot jet you should run, I want to say 50, but most guys run that with modded airboxes and carbs.........

what size is the stock pilot jet i didnt even look im running a 160 main and it seems to be fine and boy did that pipe make a difference on the road where i can get it to hook up b/c we got about 6 inches of snow. and does the nicholas carb mod really make a noticeable difference and what do thay do to it

I don't know what the stock pj is.........but, be sure to keep an eye on your spark plug(and how its running) to make sure you have the jetting right.


as for the carb mod.......it will be a night and day difference.......this is on of the best mods for the pred in my opinion. Also, I'd mod your airbox if I was you, the pred's airflow is pretty limited.......I'd do this by drilling 4 1" holes in the back of the box, below where the filter seals.......or if you don't want to do that, you could buy mine.......[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
