The 400ex will be far more reliable than the 660 Raptor. But the Raptor will have more power. When it's running that is. 660's are notorious for breaking down. I would like to know why the 400ex has a jet kit on it and no mods other than a K&N? If you do get the 400, the FIRST thing you need to do is get rid of the K&N and get a UNI filter instead.

Second, the jet kit is because when you do anything, i.e. put a filter on, mess with the filter cover, exhaust, etc, you have to rejet it so you are running at the right mixture. That is the reason there is a jet kit on with the filter. Without it, it would probably run rough.
Third, The 400ex has a lot of mods that you can do to it, which will make it go pretty fast. Also, the 400ex has better handling and in the long run, they are a very reliable machine that, with proper upkeep, will last forever!
If you are thinking about getting exhaust or new filter, remember that you have to rejet each time, so when you decide to do your mods, do them all at once so you don't have to keep rejetting it. If you decide to make the 400ex stock again, meaning stock filter, your going to have to rejet it to stock settings.
In my opinion, I would go with the 400ex, I have a 2007, and I have a lot of fun with it, and with some mods, it will be a quick machine! I hope I could help!!!

First, K&N filters pass small dirt particals, which inturn, go into your engine. I have heard this, and seen it first hand, that they aren't the greatest filter to put on.
