well to tell you the truth i'm not sure
how old are you?
you might want to look into a bigger machine if you need more power.
putting money into a mini can turn into a waste.
imo i would save up for a bigger and better machine.

ya you could get reeds a bigger carb and then you could rejet a bit bigger.
i'm not sure on the pricing but if you can get a pipe its usually the best bang for your buck

that would help in the bottom end??? But with the pipe dont u need jets and clutch springs??? Also what pipe should i get FMF, WHR, Henrick??? What the best pipe .. Also will the quad be louder? and do the pipes come with silencers .. one last thing will the pipe help me in the bottom end equal to the carb and the jets? Which one is better for bottom end will this give me more top end to?

i would get the pipe first and then the carb but that jmo.
ya its going to a little louder but you will probably get more performance gains.
i'm no expert so i can't tell you for sure which would work better but i would think the pipe
and you say you want bottom end and top end well the truth is you can't have both.
now as i said earlier you are not going to get much out of moding a mini
i put a pipe on my lt 80 and it hardly made a difference.
but its up to you. i just think that its kind of silly heavilily moding a mini.....jmo
but i hope that helps a bit a good idea would be to phone some of these places to get there opinoins
