the yfz is much quicker in acceleration, but top speed the banshee would have about a 5 mph faster top end. Unless you were going to do nothing but dunes or drags the yfz would be a better choice.

1 screw will remove the baffle, take the lid completely off, you will need to rejet because you'll be lean, but you'll still feel a difference.
