Default 2008 Wolverine 450 quick tweak suggestions

Hey Everyone, I've got a 2008 wolverine 450 and was hoping to get suggestions on a few topics:

1)This past weekend one of my tie rod ends popped off and I need a replacement. From the research I've done I have two options: 1)by a set of two tie rod ends for 50$ or 2) buy a complete kit which includes everything to upgrade my tie rods into 12mm rather then the 10mm. (2 tie rods, 4 tie rod ends, 4 nuts and 4 cotter pins).

2)Will i see/feel a significant difference with a dynojet?

3) Air Filters... K&N (87$) vs Ignition Racing Filter(21$) vs Uni Filter(26$) which one is the best bang for buck?

4)any other suggestions or upgrades you have done.

Thanks

Phil

Way better deals at rocky mountain ATV or ebay. Your choice, larger tie rods certainly could help you to feel safer but I have always used the standard replacements.

Not likely

I prefer UNI
4)any other suggestions or upgrades you have done.

Thanks
