Default just a few more questions about a Raptor

I have a full fmf titanium exhaust and a k&n air filter...i know there's a lot of room for improvement, but i dont race and only use it during the desert season. What are a few mods that i could do to make it run faster up the hill that won't cost me an arm and a leg. I got one idea from someone to get a sproket with like two less teeth and it would make my gears last a little longer so i could go faster in a lower gear, since on the raptor when im in first gear its for about a second. Oh yeah and is it worth it to get a electronic shifter put on? thanks for the help.

For the back sprocket that would work, for the front sprocket u would need to add teeth to increase top speed

So you need to go up dunes faster? well, if you havent allready get a good Set of paddles, and the ribbed front tires, i hear they make a big differnece. Also, Ditch the Replacement K&N, and go for a Pro-Design Pro-Flow K&N with outerwear, then run the lid off and re-jet. Big boost. bigger filter, better design keeps sand out, and you can run with out lid for more flow. Other then that, try re-gearing. adding teeth in the rear lowers top end, adding teeth in the front adds top end.

oh, and if that isnt enough, considering dropping in an Hotcam stage 1 cam?? Good mod for money, 130$ shipped at www.sweetquads.com and it adds a considerable amount of power from idle to redline..

where can i find the pro design pro flow k&n with outerwear? and that sounds easy enough to install. but with the re jet and the cam i should take it in right? and for the sprocket what i want is longer gears in low end so which would i do add or minus teeth and if i did that what would you suggest doing to the front sprocket? thanks for the help
