Default scrambler400 2x4 vs predator500

Hey yall, I have a 02 scrambler 400 and my brother has a 04 pred. I was wondering if you could tell me what mods i would need to keep up with him in a drag race or slightly beat him (both are stock). Thanks in advance

put it on a diet. clutch kit, pipe and jet it and change your sprockets for starters. Then possibly even a big bore kit for your machine.

HPD trail mod. About 65hp at the crank. Or you can really step it up to the race mod or Powermaxx kit. OVer 85 hp at the crank[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

You will take him in a drag race, but he may still catch you on top end. Cutting the weight down will help a lot too.

tape off the area of how you would like your fenders to look. then take a fine tooth saw or a dremel and cut them.
this was just posted the other day. if you do a search in polaris forum about it. You can get a bunch of options on how everyone has cut theirs.

Hey Scrambler02 do you go to Kermit to ride? I ride there almost every weekend. If you get the trail mod you can beat a Pred. I have.

If you put your quad on a diet all you can beat a stock pred without touching anything inside the motor just with bolt ons. I still don't have porting and i can easily beat any stock quad.
