Best Z400 setup
Take off the snorkel noise baffle, also the airbox lid if you're daring, and rejet (to a 140 or 145). ~$7 later you'll have way more** low and mid rpm torque.
If you feel the need to get a new filter, screw K&N's, they're way overpriced and let in dirt like you wouldn't believe. I've heard they're worse for letting sand in than foam filters, but that's just what I "heard". I've actually seen K&N's let dirt by.
K&N + adaptor is around $90
Aftermarket Foam filter is $20
Are slip ons worth it? not really.
Are full systems worth it? not really.
Are either of those more worth it if you get a stroker kit and/or cams? could be.
Pipes don't affect 4 strokes as much as they do with 2 strokes.
If you want best the setup for every dollar spent, check out my site http://atv.corpsie.com
If you want the absolute best set up regardless of money, then just go all out get a stroker kit, high compression piston, ignition system, full exhaust, aluminum radiator, edelbrock carburetor, cams, etc...
** keep in mind that I did this mod BEFORE altering my exhaust pipe, so I know what the effect is. Some people do all these mods at once and can't really target what mod had what effect.
