I know there have been a lot of discussions on jetting for the Raptor, but most have revolved around jetting with a pipe and airlid removed.

I want to keep my lid on, but with the snorkel restriction removed and the baffle removed. Has anyone come up with a workable solution for this?

I'm at 400ft above sea level. I was thinking about 27.5 pilots and 160/165 mains. Anyone care to comment? I'm hoping that I won't have to do it 3 or 4 times to get it right.

I'll probably go with the larger of your two options then. With the 140/145, it bogs severely when I hit the next gear when I have the rubber flaps in the snorkle removed.

PS... you should have my email, but if not, thanks so much, for such good dealings. The 2 extra gifts were great!

I'm here to say that if anyone ever conducts business with RedRocker, you can expect someone who really goes out of their way to treat you right.

I gotta get some sleep

If you are not going to be doing any serious mud riding I would seriously recommend the removal of the air lid. I have the full BG system and the Pro design filter kit, I am running 165, 170 with 27.5 pilots, and it ran ok with the filter lid on and the baffle cut out, but it really picked up just by taking the filter lid off, but every bike is different, try it just to see

Chasman,

I ordered the same kit...tell me how yours comes out...if this don't work, I think Redrocker has the key...I'm not chasing my tail on this thing, but I can't even get the damn pilot here. Support sucks, so its the Dynojet for now. Later.

Bash....I am runnin' the snorkle off with the baffle removed. With the snorkle off, I used a small automotive breather for the crank case vent and zip-tied it out of the way. Anyways, I have raised the needles one notch, went to 25's on the pilots, up to 145/150 on the mains, and the turns out on the adjustment screws are 3 and 1.5. There was much trial and error on the adjustment screws, but that's where I wound up. No bogs anywhere and strong bottom to top. I have also gone up to a 14 tooth front sprocket and acceleration is stronger than with the 13 tooth sprocket (I confirmed this by racing my bro's 00 Banshee back to back many times one evening). Also tried the 14 tooth set-up with 22 inch tall tires and acceleration fell off. Hope this helps. Later.
