Can some of you guys with a few more clues tell me the best thing to do to a sj engine to get more power, was looking at doin a bore kit, is it worth it also does anyone do them in n.z?
generally the 1st thing to do is a pipe (most use the factory pipe 'B'pipe for freestyle).....that is the biggest bang for your buck. next would be a ignition, MSD enhancer , ATP epic etc. then maybe raise compression a little ....aftermarked head , or skim ya stock one. those are things you will need if your going to do a big bore anyway.....
Don't even bother with a non-stroked big bore, a well running limited setup will be just as good in the surf. Hell, we spend half our time off the throttle just blipping around! Now if you are into flat water, break out the check book and hit DASA up... Change the following and you will be sweet! - Prop - Compression - Ignition - B-pipe There is about $2K in mods right there, so get back to work and start saving those coins..
sweet cheers for your help guys, 2k sounds sweet, I was prepared for 5, does anyone around hamilton do foot holds,including fitting?
Yea what he said... Maybe what you need to do 50cal is come on a ride and see a few setups of our skis and see what suits you. If you got 5k to spend get on the phone to Craig at AJSP and get the following Factory B pipe Msd or epic ingintion ada girdle head v force 2 reeds or boysen rad valve reeds hooker 9/16 impeller works 205 or 201 intake grate umi steering straight bars pole saver rope 500gph bilge pump or scupper valve and send your ski to whale for foot holds and new turf After that you will have a good reliable/powerfull ski that will be killer on surf and flat
Sorry, I just worked out the prices from AJSP and it wourks out to be about $3K NZD... :shock: Fawk, I might have to part out one of my skis... lol
