will taking the snorkel off a 04` blaster help it run faster and or better? Does the snorkel "cork" the motor for air?
And if taking off the snorkel is good, what could be the bad/negative effects??

thx ! ! !

 

its a blaster, theres not much you can do to hurt it by taking it off.

 

If you open the intake, you needto open the exhaust, and rejet. But on the other hand, it's a blaster, why bother? Shoulda got a 350 Raptor.

 

Hmmmmm..........Why would you HAVE to rejet??.........Are you sure, cause most racers say the opposite. The blaster is restricted air wise and doesnt need a change. And you comment about why bother..............UH thats childish. The guy wants a REAL answer, not some childish stuff about "why bother" A blaster can be made VERY quick. Get over it. Its light, quick and can be made very potent with some fairly cheap mods. My son has one and for only $1300.00 and about $800.00 in mods, it will keep up with just about anything stock where we live. So thats why it matters. Its a very fun small quad, thats easy to mod and fairly low cost used.

Most blaster owners, actually will vent the airbox lid with about 6 1" vents. With that set up, you dont need to rejet. The stock blaster Runs rich to begin with, so opening the air restriction helps a good bit. A more free flowing air box, a good set of reeds, a good pipe, etc and you can really move on a blaster.

 

Shoulda got a 400ex. =)
