I just want to know if anybody has an idea of how much horsepower the Trinity 420 Banshee kit makes versus the Paul Turner 403 Eliminator kit. Which is better for trail riding??

Let me guess this straight. Your are thinking about spending well over $2000 on a major hp kit, and are worried about how well it will ride on the trails??? I'm not understanding the logic here. If you plan on bumping the hp on your quad into the 65+ level, then you are NOT going to have a tame trail quad no matter what. The fact that you even asked the question tells me that you're not ready for this kind of motor. They make these kits for hp hungry sand and drag lunatics, not for the guy who is going to worry about how it works on the trail (the answer to which is "not as well as stock").

If u are thinking about this investment u better think about upgrading the stock shocks I would probably go with PT i had problems with trinity in the past i had to wait almost a year for my motor because of bad welding on the crank

I have the 420 longrod kit installed in my quad. If you have not rode for a long time you should'nt get either. I've been riding for 15 years. My banshee flys and will lift the front up in every gear with my +4 swing arm. I do alot of trail riding with it but it's dangerous because of all the HP it has. I weigh over 200 pds and work out and it's really hard to handle. I'm not saying not to do it but I want to let you know how it is. If you think you can handle it I say go for it. Just be carefull!!!!

Youd be faster through the trails with $2000 invested in the suspension and the stock motor(or slightly moded motor) as opposed to the stock suspension and a seriously built motor..
