Default Need more Power

Great forum here guys!

I need some help and advice. I need more power from my son's Raptor 350. I thought about the GYT-R gear. What is everyone using?

I think that we "need" an air filter and a new muffler. It does sound a little stuffy.
Lots of moaning from the air box!


Thanks for any input!

gytr is good, so is yoshi, HMF is less expensive but is a great bang for your buck. i would also get a clamp on filter (k&n or uni) with an outerwears for the water, and lose the airbox lid. after that, jet it correctly, and you will definately notice a difference! the raptor 350's are really corked up in stock form.

Hey I had/have the exact "problem". Buy a HMF Exhaust, a clamp on K&N filter, outerwear, take off the airbox lid and jet it correctly. This gave me the biggest boost out of all my upgrades. When choosing an exhaust only buy a slip-on not the whole system, the stock headpipe is fine. i dont recommended the GYTR stuff becuase it is overpriced and doesnt do much. Go towards HMF.

What's wrong with K&N? There sure are a lot of them out there to be junk!

Having owned both types of filters, I like K&N myself.

Well to realy answer your question if u want more power get a 660 but scence i seriosly dont think you will go that drastic... the first step is to new exhaust and airfilter then theres always new cam, high comp piston, bore it out, port and polish, and for alittle more top speed or acceleration you can change your sprocket sizes
