Reed stuffers /spacer or both

[Ryan.huemmer]

Recently swapped a small pin in my x2 from a donor ski and my questions should I run the stuffers and the spacer or one or the other what’s the benefits and so on
Mods are:
Pro design cool head (180psi)
West coast exhaust (have a b pipe and limited chamber for next year)
Mild porting
Westcoast exhaust mani
R&D intake mani
SBN 44
V force 3 reeds
Reed stuffers
Reed spacers

Reed spacer moves the reeds away from the crank for less turbulence and adds a little case volume. Suffers and case volume are very controversial subjects on what it does and if and where it improves anything

I don't know if you should use the spacers or the stuffers, but I can tell you with pretty good certainty that nobody will tell you to use spacers on that relatively mild motor. Some people will say to use the stuffers, some will say don't use the stuffers (mostly @waxhead )

My 750 isn't using spacers or stuffers, but that is mostly because I don't have any stuffers. Personally I'd be impressed if I saw evidence that somebody could tell the difference.

And me too! I'm not a fan, tried them in my SuperJet and found it to be better performing without them. As Wax said, try em out first and make your own opinion. That'll tell you what you want to know

I can't feel any difference but I would use the stock stuffers with the stock manifold or one that has the same size hole.
