How do I make my Raptor Faster??
#1
I'm new to this site, but it's seemed great so far at the things I've seen. I own a '01 Alba Raptor (Don't but trough Alba, you'll end up paying more money) and I love it. It already has a Pipe but I still want more power[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]. I heard something about a 680? or 720? I dont want to loose relibility. Maby just a Hi Comp. Piston and Cam?? Most of all I want to beat those fast Piped Banshee's up Comp. Anyone had any suggestions? Your help would be great.

depends on how much you want to do and pay to go faster, I have the high comp 102mm piston/cam/springs combo and yes it is way faster. You can go up to a 105mm piston (720), but you should make sure it is done correctly (good shop like trinity can help), you can also go the turbo route, but that might tend to make your quad a bit "squirley" and tough to ride in some situations. you'll find lots of good posts here about most of it

by faster I mean it "walks away" from any other raptor I have raced. I went with a racing cam (270 degree duration), this cam actually cuts back some of the low end, but gives a lot more at the top. most raptor riders dont ride the top end, but I have a bad 2-stoke jones, use a 12T countershaft and a top end modified raptor so I stay on the gas a lot, a moderatly modified raptor will pull away from me at the start but as soon as my engine starts to rev--> they are dust

If you do most of the work yourself, it is under $1000, you can have trinity do it (send them your motor) and I think its around $1600 without the exhaust system. I hope there are no reliability issues, we just checked my motor this weekend (after about 20hrs) and it tight as could be. time will tell
