I was shopping around for clutch kits early this summer for my 154 and talked to a few companies and people and I am going with Winter Brew / Roosterbuilt. He just said this is what you need and why and how much it will cost, all the other 10+ places were like "I think I got something that will work".
we found that the stock set up with the primary spring changed to 160/350 worked very well , makeing sure that the motor was in align and stayed there was extremely important . no other change needed.

Brews rep stand s for itself,
long belt life, someone to answer the phone and rave reviews from all who use them ( of course he learned it all from OT..! )LMAO !!!
Though I am a strong believer in using variable center of mass levers in the tra ..
Wouldn't it be cool to have a lever with internal mass that shifts to the tip as the lever swung out ???,, then under spring force pushed back to pivot when rpms drop..
We COULD make them,, BUT WINGNUT RANDY has a patent to block it..He won't make them and won't relinquish the patent.

Gus, after experimenting MANY years ago with adding mass to different areas of arms, trying the old "heelclicker" movable flyweight conversion....and many other things....I came to the conclusion that there is more than one way to get virtually identical results by just playing with ramp profile, spring tensions, helix angles etc....all the belt sees is the amount of squeeze and in the primary that is all applied through the arm pivot bolts to the movable sheave, and the belt doesn't care how that pressure gets there. Nothing wrong with adjustable arms....adjustability is always a good thing, the goal is still a balance between primary and secondary squeeze. . Matching primary and secondary setups is HUGE in a good clutching setup...once you find that sweet spot thing just "work".

Give Roosterbuilt a call. Night and day difference from stock best mod I have put on so far.
I use my 09 163x as an all around sled. It outclimbs my bros dragon in the mountains [Valemont], is quicker in a drag race and has more top end on the lake[91-92 MPH].Is Roosters or DJ's kit going to slow me down anywhere. I remember what Big John said once ''Some kits works good in the hills but no top end on the way in /out is lame.''
Total weight of arm with 1 mm oversize rollers are 70 grams[880 race motor}
My kit for your 09 will have all around performance increase. If you are getting 90mph w/stock setup, you'll still get that with my kit.
Where you'll notice largest difference is in the deep snow. If you were previously getting say 36mph track speed, you should get 39mph with the kit.
Full throttle climbing, speed range of 30~45 mph; I claim a 3~4 mph track speed increase over stock clutching on 08~10 models.
160/350 @ 3900 engage
14g~20g pin set

I'm guessing he didnt call me, I wouldnt say that either...a mountain sled that runs WI. and WY. would respond well to my Shockwave adj. helix clutch kit...big diff. in HP from 1000' to 9000'....BJ
