This is not the Z I bought!

I agree with Oz400. I was going to use my hole saw but I couldn't remember who I lent it too. You know how friends and tools are.
YZguy- Yeah, anytime. Wildwash was the first place I took my Z. I grew up riding the SB mountains on the back side of Lucerne Valley, so I'm always up for that. I like technical, crossgrain, single track (well I guess it's double track now), moto-x, desert. I've only been to the dunes once with my Z, so I am a dune rookie, but it's a blast.My e-mail is JNJdsrt@aol.com.
jeffksf- The snorkel mod is just complete removal of snorkel and lid. My stock jet was a 130 main. My dealer said jets didn't exist when I asked. However, when I said I new they had them because they're selling Yoshis he pulled out a 152.5 and it cost 8 bucks--so there is no part #.

322, have you tried to really wind out the motor with these mods. I've done the same basic mods as you. 152.5 main jet, removed sound baffle, no lid or snorkle. The quad really gained alot of power, but at high rpm's it studders. I'm either reaching the rev limiter or I need to play with the jetting some more. Have you noticed anything like this?

I don't think it's the rev limiter. I cut out the pea-shooter from my exhaust, removed that sound baffle & put in a 145 main jet, I can hold it against the rev limiter all day and it doesn't shudder.
When I had everything stock except for chopping out the pea-shooter, it would shudder near/at the rev limiter. It was definitely running lean.

I still think it's the rev limiter. I installed a 13 front sprocket, which may make it easier to rev high. I ran a 165 main yesterday and it ran great but my plug is black so it's definately rich. At least I have a starting point now so I can step down the main until the plug looks good. I have a 157.5 on hand, so I think I'll try that next.
