you cant gain cc's unless you get a bigger bore so nothing but a bigger piston will add cc's........they are refering to horsepower and you mostlikely wont get a 15% increase, thats just the biggest increase they have seen on the quads they dynoed you will probally get 8-10% so kawasaki claims it has around 15hp at the crank so you will see an aprox. 1-2 hp increase

yup at most places the filter will be 40, the jet kit 50 and the prefilter about 10 and this also comes wiht the filter service kit which cost another 10 bucks so ur getting like a 120 dollar kit for 40 bucks so its a sweet deal
