1. Are boysen reeds good.

No, not really. I can't tell a difference. Stay Stock, I'm going back to my stock reeds.

2. Is a toomey jet kit good and can you use it with any set of pipes. Also how much does one usually cost?

Well, the jet kit is designed to match the power curve of the pipe (the needle taper does that). Would probably work fine with any other top-end pipe. Honestly, Jet kits by themselves are a rip-off. If you get them with the pipe then fine but don't buy separately.

3. Are boost bottles worth buying

Not at all. Anybody who tells you different is imagining a power increase.

4. What are the coolest graphic kit's out there and were on the net can I take a look at them and there cost's.

Next question that matters....

5. How many paddles should I get when I buy paddle tires for it.
Thanks

If you are piped then 10 paddles is the max. It depends somewhat on your tire size. for a 20" tire 10 paddles works OK but on a 22" tire I would think 8 paddles would hook up pretty well too.... I run 20" 10 paddle tires now. Next set will be 21" 9 paddles or 22" 8 paddle tires.


If you want worthwhile mods consider the following: Pipes, Pro-Design air filter flange, milled head, +4 degree key, Skat Trak Haulers for paddle tires; all the rest pale in comparison.
