i'd say go with the CT pipe...most power and also the quietest...oh and BTW you can do all you want to your quad but without raising its redline nothing will raise the top speed besides a sprocket change

 

what are the cons of changing the sprockets?-if i do, what sizes should i get?

 

i wouldnt go with a ct because its way out of ur price range.

no offense but ive allready told u that, read the posts. 15/42. the side affect is a little less torque, but a sh!* load more speed.

 

I would have to say got with a 13 tooth FS. Reason being...can you even hit the rev limiter in 5th gear?? If not a 15 tooth would be a waste of money. Say for instance that you even could hit the rev limiter...when are you ever going 5th gear at 9000 RPM's anyway?? I can tell ya that by the time you get to that speed I will have finished the drag, changed clothes, and be eating a sandwich!

 

the stock frons sprocket is 13 isnt it.

 

what is the difference between a 13 and a 15?how much torque would i lose?(because i ride mostly at Tower City and if youve been there you know there are big hills-how big would the difference in speed be if i changed the sprockets?


btw does anyone know how much the HMF pipe weighs? j/w

 

No. Stock gearing is 14-40.

BEX250400ZI- If you are trying to climb big hills then there is no question you should move to a 13 tooth. More acceleration and more torque. Even with all my motor mods and being on alcohol I still run 13-41 gearing.

 

so i should get a 13/42? and how fast will that make my Z?

 

No I'd stick with 13-40. Here try this out and you can get a good idea of what you might want...
