G9 In need of more power!!!

FireBall · 01-28-2011, 10:40 PM

alright guys I have a yami G9 fully custom all the way down to the body with 26x12xr12 tires on it and i'm running a 14hp onan single cylinder engine and although it has good top end speed and low end torque its just not enough for what I want and considering my spider gears are locked I just need more power!!! so i'm considering the 23hp vanguard from CPP and i'm wondering if that would be enough power to spin the tires lol...I dont wanna go with a cam or anything like that unless I have to
would like to keep the motor stock with just the rev kit maybe? would really like some input on this
thx guys

Not sure about spinning the 26's, but I know the 23 vanny (yes with rev kit) will blow the 14 hp out of the water!!

Thx man...thats really all I wanted to hear
just wanted to make sure I would notice a little performance gain lol

I dont think it would be just a little but a lot, but man those are some big tires.

lol yes they are and thats what hurts the power of my 14hp specially because of the locked rear end....but I gotta give props to my 14hp cause it will spin the tires going up a hill...just not as good as I would like lol

Yeah I would start with a 23 and get a clutch you can tune (change springs/etc). If that is not enough cams and other magical parts await the 23hp.

Just to show what a clutch can do, and it was not nice to drive this way, once a friend of mine put a sled spring in an old EZGO the old steel 2 stroke. It would rev like crazy and suddenly lock in and put the rear bumper on the ground doing a wheelie. It had no power, but man did it engage hard. He later put a larger carb on it and blew it up, but said it had more power with the big carb before it grenaded lol.
