#1

You should get a pipe first, then think about a cam. I hear GREAT things about the supertrapp IDS2 complete system. Either the race or the silent core. Rockymountainatv.com (1-800-336-5437) sells the IDS2 quiet series for about $240. If you contact Dennis Kirk (1-800-328-9280) they have the IDS2 race series for about $290. Get an aftermarket air filter, than re-jet your bike. THEN think about getting a set of cams. Hope this helps.

I haven't changed my cams, but from what I have read here, the stock Mojave cam is about as good as you can get-go with what Kawi250 said-you won't be disappointed. Get rid of that stock air box also-unless you ride thru a lot of water.

I want to get a clamp-on filter for my Mojave. If I do this, I know that water is an issue, but will I be able to go through puddles? I never submerge the quad, I just do through water and mud no more than a foot deep. Please help!!

What's up:
When you say you want to get a clamp on airfilter, do you mean getting rid of the whole airbox and clamping a airfilter right up to the carb. I see a lot of people with uni stage 2 clamp on filters. What are these?
Help me out I still have my stock airbox and don't know what to do!

For carb jetting and air filters, well it's done in stages:
Keeping your air box and going to an after market filter (with a jet kit) is considered stage I
Removing your air box and getting a filter to clamp directly on your carb, is considered stage III
I have had many stage III machines but all for the street or strip.
I only built stage one machines for the dirt.
Be very careful here, water is a pain in the a$$ and I just can't see a recreational machine going this far.
But let me tell you stage III is the ONLY way to go for racing.
Now if none of you have jet-kits, don't waiste your time. A filter will help a stock machine but I doubt you will gain much!!

Kawi250,
Sure you can ride through shallow puddles, just not very fast. Any splashing will get the exposed filter wet. In some areas of the country, like the dunes or desert, an exposed air filter wouldn't be much of a problem. But I'm with Gaff about it being a pain in the ***. In my neck of the woods there is no way it would work for me. Too many creeks, swamps, mud holes, slush, rain, snow... well you get the idea.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

I guess I'll stick with the stock air box then. I was only thinking of doing it if the power increrases were a lot more then with a regular air box. I have a K&N clamp-on on my YZ and there isn't a problem with the bike dying, although I rarely ride through water on it. By the way, I just brought the YZ to a shop to get re-jetted for good preformance. Any one interested in buying it??? I need more money for my Mojave!

I run a K&N clamped on the carb with a water resistant Outerware. I ride through creeks, puddles, deep mud and etc. I can ride through water over the tires if i keep the speed down. If you hit a big puddle going fast sometimes it will splash enough to choke it out. Doesn't happen much though. If you run a clamp on be sure and use a water resistant Outerwear, It must say water resistant on the label or it is not one. Splashed on water will roll right off these outerwares. I just slip a sandwich bag over the filter and secure it with a rubber band when i hose off or wash the quad.
