Default Carb Jet Replacement

When you replace the stock air filter with a cone style filter such as K&N or UNI, do you need to rejet the carb on a stock motor?



Which jet would you use if it needs to be replaced? If you have a link for the jet, please send it too. Thanks!

Order the pipe also, the jet comes with it. What size jet are you running? Drop the bowl and pull the jet and it has a number stamped on it. With the pipe I am running a #90 at sea level.

I cannot post exact power improvements such as gps or anything, but I did pick up seatof the pants power. I can now take my buddies same ez-go by 1.5-2 cart lengths. I have the rcc uni kit and there pipe. IT IS LOUDER, be aware if you use around the neighbor hood you could have some pissed-off neighbors. I think it sounds good. In another post you commented you are slower on take off with the 28 degree driven, I also noticed the same result. I think it is because it does not shift up as fast, which helps on the hills.

Sorry to hear that. What size is the stock jet? If you are to lean you will be low on power,try pulling the choke a little and see if it runs better. If it does, you need a bigger jet.

Is yours a 2004 or newer ? They use the smaller 13mm carb with a #82 main. The air flow increase isn't quite enough to go to an #88, 84 sounds optimal for you .

Also, did you bump up your govenor?
