the entire kit (pipe,y,can,intake) made the sled run way better in mid/high range. noticeable difference from stock. issue I'm having is the resonance and low end shudder/burble I described in my post. I did not install the MTX weights and 40/36 helix that came with the kit but did try the SLP 120/310 and 120/340 drive springs to get the rpm's up and keep same engagement.
I ride at 2500' so the stock helix is the 46/40. One thing I haven't tried yet is the 40/36 helix. SLP suggested I stay with the 46/40 if I don't install the MTX weights (really don't want to shim the spider).
I understand the basics of clutching but not as well versed as some of you guys. correct me if i'm wrong but going with a lower angle helix start rate will slow the upshift thereby getting revs quicker....getting out of the burble faster. But from riding the sled it just feels like something with the motor...i'm not really sure what a lean or rich bog feels like.
So I took the sled back to stock and it runs fine. can't really tell if the SLP intake with stock pipe setup made any change.
going to try the kit again but this time start with the can only to see if that is where the resonance/burble comes from. then get the clutching figured out then reinstall the y and pipe.
