This is a great post on Arctic Cat. For those who live in the Denver, CO Metro area (Front range) the biggest concern any Cat owner has is customer support. We have NO dealerships in a top mountain market. Hard to believe, but its true. Love Arctic Cat, but without a true dealership and just a part time mechanic that works on the sled when he can, it's time to rethink the Green.

Hi, What size of jets do you have, I have a bog at 4000 ft, have sledworks pipe, rkt head, ported

 

[Bearcat]

I'd like to edit my post but I can't?

I've changed helix from 48/40p to 42/38p and dropped weight from 77gr to 75gr. Feels I should drop even more?
