Can someone explain to me what advancing the timing and lightening the flywheel will do to a quad, specifically a 01 raptor with a race cam and 11:1 hi-comp piston? Anything?? It was recommended by the race shop so I had it done with my engine modifications, but my knowledge is fairly limited after the cam and piston. Thanks.


2001 Blk/Wht Raptor, WB E-series Silencer, Pro Design Filter w/ Modified Airbox, TMM Race Cam, 11:1 Hi-comp Piston, Port/Polish, Dura Blue Eliminator Axle, TMM +2/+1 A-arms, AC Nerf Bars, 12 Tooth, Trailtech, Red Saranwrap Headlights(hehe)

 

advancing the timming will increase mid and top end performace. lightnig the flywheel will give quicker throtle response . I would not recomend doing this on the raptor due to it having a rather light flywheel to begin with.it will also tend to be more finiky and stall more at low rpm starts . I think there is far more performance things you can do to the raptor to get the power you are looking for . it exspensive but I,ve been reading that the fcr carbs on the raptor make nice inprovements. like $750 bucks ? good luck ,and hope I helped
