f.y.i from Patrick Saunders / Pres./Senior Editor

I notice a big difference with the MXU cdi box in my machine, but I have air box, muffler, & jetting. The cdi box from the mxu removes the rev limiter and allows you to go faster.

The muffler is tough to work with because it has a catalyst in it, and is very restrictive. I am looking for more power, not noise when I do my mods. You can take the cap off the muffler and cut off the restrictor cone, giving you a little better bottom end.
There will be a new muller soon that will give you more power without having to fiddle with your stock muffler. This kit will be offered with the muffler, jets, and airbox lid.

I went up a couple of sizes in my low speed jet to a 42.

I removed the 122 main jet and replaced it with a 130 main jet, but you can use a 124 or 126 main, but you don't get that punch.

I have the epi spring clutch kit here, but I have not felt I needed any clutch work yet because I have had no clutch issues like some have experienced.

The piston kit is still in the works and I cannot talk about it yet.
