Advice / Suggestions...

O.K.
I just removed my restrictor plate on my '05 790 with TOR's, K&N, and opened the plastic "Bell Mouth."
What do you suggest or recommend for Main, Pilot, Shims, Turns...
I'm leaning towards 130, 42, 1 shim, and 2.5 turns.
As soon as I can afford it she'll be ARK w/ TOGA's...
This will have to do in the mean time...
I may dyno now and after the ARK and TOGA's...
Got to get to the Dark Side soon!
We'll see, just need help for the time being to get her in the ball park for now...
Thanks,
Allin

Oh Yeah! What about a Thruxton needle? Should I now, or wait for the ARK and BC Toga's?

Flaco,

That seem to check with what Ventura posted.

I have 120 main jets, but I have not opened up the bellmouth.

The TORS are a little restrictive, I would think you may be a tad rich at a 130 main with that setup. Maybe nearer to a 125 would be closer?
