Default Do It Yourself Porting Templates ?

I am new here and just got a new Banshee. I was wondering if anyone here has used the porting templates from racelogic.com . I've seen very good things about them on other forums but this one seems to be the biggest around.
Thanks in advance

They are a great all around porting, I did mines and it out runs most others with similar mods.

CaptainBags, sorry they are only for 2stroke motors, a four stroke port job requires more than just matching up ports and opening up the intakes and exhaust

CRUD! Is there any maps for Raptor porting anywhere? I'd really like to see the difference in before and, after photos and, details.

A 2 stroke engine requires more as well. You are opening up the mating surface but still have the restrictive intake / exhaust paths. Thats where the Race Logic stuff falls short IMO. Still probably worth the minimal cost vs power gained though.

Thanks for the input. I just ordered the Banshee kit online. WWW.RACELOGIC.COM (that was easy !!). Going out to take the SHEE apart now, so I'll be ready to go as soon as it gets here. I'll post my results after the weekend (I Hope). Please keep posting more info.

Thanks Again

Be sure to rebuild the top end while it's apart. And get the head shaved if not already done.

Those look pretty cool. Hiram with the porting and .020 off the head how much difference would it make in My stock banshee? Right now it has a K&N and T-5 pipes and runns good on a 300 main jet. hw much would I need to do to the carbs after that.
