Fox makes lightweight air shocks. They're very pricey.

I recently switched from the orange/blue to the HPD plain spring and it made a significant difference in the drag race/hill climb performance.

mill the sheaves
ditch the dayco belt and run a stock belt

that will improve your times ...
Why do you say dumping the FST CDI will improve times? Advancing the ignition has shown hp improvement in the V.

oh .. cut the muzzy? what do you mean exactly? also by shimming the needles do i cut them or put washers in? and to how much do i do this? and by milling the sheaves is that when you get your clutch taken off and machined down? sorry haha

what things am i missing? i never seen a pick of it but i have the front air dam so far it works nicely...how many washers on the needles? btw i am working on cuttin my exhaust right now..


was think why do i even need the canaster on there.. could you run it for drag racing if jetted right? or would it lose performance? its really loud with out the canaster i had to check so i started it for a sec[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
