Default boost 450r power

I have a 2005 stock honda 450r. I'm wanting to put some aftermarket stuff on it to make it more powerful, quicker, and faster. I looked into the honda hrc kit, which was my first choice, and i have seen alot of people talking about a whitebrothers kit. I havnt researched the white bros kit though. My budget is anything up to $200 or $300. Im wanting the best price/performance ratio, but anything i can do to get more speed or power will be good. I would like details on what the cost would be and what kind of proformance gain I would notice. Thanx

Simplest thing is remove the airbox lid, and uncork the exhaust. Better yet, an EHS Racing lid, ProDesign foam air filter, and aftermarket muffler. The HRC kit does wonders.

ya like he said, you need a pipe for starters, and take the lid off... if you have a higher price range then go with a stage 1 0r 2 hotcam.

Ya, I kno i should get a pipe, but I dont know what kind to get, i dont want to spend alot on one, and (i know this sounds retarded) I dont want a loud pipe either. I live in a neighborhood of cranky old people and I get the cops called when I ride my dirtbike without baffles, lol. ill, take my lid off though, and probally get an hrc kit.


o yeah, what do you think the top speed would be with an hrc kit and a reccomended pipe?

you also need to think about when you are going to use this top speed. when are you going to need to go 90 mph. not on a motocross track or trail riding. but yeah, go up on teeth in the front or down teeth in the back for higher top speed. other way around for accel. changing 1 in the front is like changing 3 in the back
