Title: Jetting for full exhaust, individual pods (just making sure)
Post by: AR5ENAL on July 14, 2004, 01:59:50 PM
Okay, here's the setup:

Jardine full exhaust
K&N individual pod filters (not the lunchbox pod)
Santa Cruz, CA  (elevation ~20 ft, avg. humidity ~30%)

Here's what my shopping list looks like:

Mikuni #40 non bleeder pilot jets (2) (N151/067)
Mikuni #150 large round main jets (2) (N100/604)
#4 Washers (4)

Am I good to go?  This is the right jetting combination for my setup, isn't it?  If it makes any difference, I do plan on adding an advancer at some point.

How much of a difference is there with the individual pods vs. the lunchbox pod?

If it helps, that looks a lot what I came up with. I can't tell you how it runs though. My engine is in many, many pieces at the moment. Should be fixing that this weekend though.

K&N pod filter
MN (no idea what elevation is)

mikuni 40 pilots
mikuni 147.5 mains (not sure why i didn't go with the 150s, but I have the 147.5s and I'll swap later if I need to)
#4 washers (4)

Please let me know how this works for you performance wise? I was dissappointed in the K&N with stock exhaust. Also, I really like Santa Cruz. I taught my kids to body surf by the boardwalk. We froze and got really bad sunburns but it was worth it.   :cheers:

I have a ton of friends from there. I live in San Diego right now, but i used to go to school up in the NOrth bay area. Don't miss the freezing water! I like to go play on the beach and see lots, lots of hot chicks in bikinis. Let me know how it goes, i bought a dynojet kit... i'll go that way, you go yours. Good luck!
