Save yourself a lot of wasted money and time and get a 400ex. They are just not in the same catagory of performance. Ive been there and done that . Heck the 400ex has been at the bottom of sport quad market in perfomance for quite some time now. The 250x is a great quad but look at what you need first . And if anyones says a pipe and filter will make them perform as good as a 400ex there is a term for them. Liars

oh believe me id love to, but i dont have $3k for one, and i know there are ways of making it keep up, not necessarily win in a race, but still keeping up is keeping up.

I don't think it's a different motor, it's just probably bored and stroked to the max.
