Default Predator Questions

Hey any of you guys tried out the Dial-a-Jet on your Predator? Just wonderin because Dirt Wheels liked it in when they tried it on the 400EX so just to see if any of you are gonna put one on your Predator. And second do any of you know what suspension setup would be good for my pred because Im pretty light and weigh about 135 lbs and the stock is way too stiff. Any advice?

Badazz,

Thunder Products makes the dial-a-jet. The website is http://www.thunderproducts.com. They dont show it for the pred but i called them and they said that they do have it just not on the website.

I ordered a dial a jet today for my predator to give it a try, hoping for better performance from the mods I've done.

I've installed the w/b pipe (9 discs) k&n filter, 38 tooth rear sprocket , vented air box, 160 main jet, raised needle one click(4th position).

I drag raced my friends predator which is bone stock and only pull him by nose in a approx 1/8 mile run. And this is from a 2nd gear roll to eliminate the hole shot so we could see the difference in just the power. Then we whiched quads and raced again and still very close. So either the jetting or the amount of discs in the pipe isn't right! Because it definitly doesn't have 9 hp more than stock. So I ordered more discs and a dial a jet to do more testing. I'll post the results in a week or two.

And yes we raced many times when they were both stock it was in most cases a tie or no gain or loss once off the line.

I heard that the Dial-a-jet is supposed to give you an increase in horsepower but the main reason why it is supposed to be good is because of the adjustability. You can supposedly adjust the carb for elevation and performance upgrades im minutes without taking the carb off or apart. It is all external. It is supposed to be able to be adjustable for aftermarket exhausts or performance upgrades. Well anyone have any past experience with this?
