rcjunky3 Posted December 21, 2005 Share Posted December 21, 2005 as long as your on here whats your take on the cam question hot cams or the yz trick any differences between rev boxes from all the different companies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sand_YFZ Posted December 21, 2005 Author Share Posted December 21, 2005 as long as your on here whats your take on the cam question hot cams or the yz trick any differences between rev boxes from all the different companies The yz cam is the same as doing the cam mod,no performance diff there.The hotcams you will see a little top end pull diff.With the web +5 race grind you will see a nice noticeable gain top to bottom,those are awesome cams.The is a new crower gen3 billet cam that runs great too.The cams in the yfz are great cams and with the cam mod they work great,but to be honest i will probably do cams myself.I would probably go with the webs or the gen 3.The hotcams are a great budget minded cam for sure though.

rcjunky3 Posted December 21, 2005 Share Posted December 21, 2005 i am just wanting to do a few things to get a little more out of my bike without getting a bunch of money tied up and still maintain a nice desert bike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sand_YFZ Posted December 21, 2005 Author Share Posted December 21, 2005 as far as CDI boxes go there a ONLY 3 different rev boxes made.1 is the Dyna,the best one of them all maybe,lots of different options on this one but very expensive too.2 is the vortex which from what i read wont work or need a modification to work with aftermarket flywheels,this is a very nice unit also and a bit on the pricey side.3 is a Procom which is basically every little black box you see with big gun,esr,white bros,etc...... stickers on them.They are basically all the same with stickers on them.Mine that took a crap at dumont was a cheapy procom i paid 90 bucks on ebay for.it lasted a year then crapped out.If i buy another it will be the Dyna.Hope that helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sand_YFZ Posted December 21, 2005 Author Share Posted December 21, 2005 i am just wanting to do a few things to get a little more out of my bike without getting a bunch of money tied up and still maintain a nice desert bike Ill tell you right now the best investment to get faster at the dunes without limiting your bike is a badass set of tires,like padla bratts,or double or triple buffed 6 or 7 cup haulers on blue labels.mount em up on like 8x7 inch wheels and you will pick it up bigtime,by cutting down on your rotating mass.21x12x8 is a perfect all around tire size for the do all purpose. call fullerton sandsports Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sand_YFZ Posted December 21, 2005 Author Share Posted December 21, 2005 keep your stock gearing too,like 14-38,if my bike will pull 4th up comp with my fat a$$ on it yours will too,mine did that as a bolt on bike too.so dont play with your gearing to pull more gears,get a better tire setup and keep your gearing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rcjunky3 Posted December 21, 2005 Share Posted December 21, 2005 thanks for all the good info i appreciate it i will check out those tires i was looking at a set of edges or sand stars since my tires are a bit on the worn out side Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Time & money- 2 things that are hard to come by sometimes. They will come about soon enough though. Start a new thread under DDR Gear if anyone wants to talk more about it.

1BADYFZ Posted January 24, 2006 Share Posted January 24, 2006 you guys should take his advice, he is super fast for a stock bore.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross and Alice Posted January 25, 2006 Share Posted January 25, 2006 perfect jetting for dumont for a yfz450 on gas is 175 main,45 pilot,and 1 3/4 turns out of the fuel screw.worked perfect on mine until i switched fuels. Thats what I use except 2 turns on the screw,, and the Yami needle, with 1 click more on the clip. Any more jetting tends to add a lag, or flat spot in the low end. We use the Yoshi pipe, and found the med silencer insert gave the best low and top end results. Don't take the jets / pipe insert advise from Yoshi, they have no clue how to super tune a YFZ, and they know it. No silencer insert and we lost low end big time. The smallest insert seemed to effect top end. Also have the Alba high rev black box that added 1000 RPM, and the very first mod before you do anything to a YFZ should be a different airfilter other than stock. Sandstars are very nice tires,, but Haulers give ya the uphill edge if you have a head for wheelies,, which I don't but wish I did,, so I run sandstars. People running haulers seem to stick to the side of bowls better at high speed than us running starz,, but damfino on that observation,,, Also: Plus 100 octane race gas cut 40% with 91 octane. No matter what you do,, there will always be someone out there who is faster. No one could beat us our first weekend out until a guy on a DS 650 showed up with a snomobile motor on it and he annihilated every sand vehicle out there. Incredably fast. So my feelings are just a powerfull,, good handling, fun to ride, comfortable quad that'll keep up with your friends on group rides fits our needs,, and it has to be dependable too. Everyone I know that has run NOS has grenaded their engine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sand_YFZ Posted January 25, 2006 Author Share Posted January 25, 2006 you know what i just realized i put the wrong info.Its 2 3/4 turns out on the fuel screw,very sorry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EY3BA11 Posted January 25, 2006 Share Posted January 25, 2006 2 3/4 turns is almost tooo much.. you might want to go one up on the pilot and turn your F/A screw back in a bit.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dunefreak Posted January 25, 2006 Share Posted January 25, 2006 2 3/4 turns is almost tooo much.. you might want to go one up on the pilot and turn your F/A screw back in a bit.. I think Aaron has his bike pretty dialed, Nick. Just my . 02 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EY3BA11 Posted January 25, 2006 Share Posted January 25, 2006 I know he does just making that suggestion... I believe its only 3 or 3 1/2 turns for the screw to fall out... Too far out and there will be no pressure on the spring in there to hold it in place and will fall out... Just a observation to be aware of is all..
