Ok... I just bought a 98 rn.
It has -
A factory type 4 dry pipe
msd water injection
bored carbs
maybe an enhabcer
maybe a milled head
has a race port and polish job
supposedly was built to the nuts but who knows???
Now today I went and rode it for the first time, it hauls ass, has decent bottom end and the top end is insane. Reminds me of a banshee with a light switch power band. Keep it in the band and it is insane. I felt the bottom end was crap though, I want the ski for flatwater freestlye so assume I need all bottom end.
I got home and for curiosity sake I checked the compression and it was 115. I wet tested and it jumped to 150. So I think it needs a top end.
What would I do to get more bottom end. Should I tear it down, look at the porting and just put it back together with a fresh bore. Or maybe sell all the pipe and water injection, buy a b-pipe etc?
Also would anyone know if I should dump the water injection? Can I make this setup better or just plan on dumping that stuff? I also have a protec head and R&D intake sitting in a box, these worth anything on the ski?
Thanks for any opinions, the goal here is bottom end BRAP!!!
