Rick Roy is runnig a lot of DASA 850 stock stroke motors right now. Im not sure what domes you got but call Kyle at Dasa, he'll hook you up with some info on the spec for compression with your particular motor. Mines 185 psi, and with a non rickter they claim the stock pump will work fine. I cant wait to find out.

I put a new 144mm on my SJ with a big bore and then on my FS2 with same engine - not overly impressed. It did "grab" a bit better when off balance but not $1200 better. I was just as happy with my OEM pump and hooker prop.
That's what Jetworks recommended for my setup.
How did you pick the impeller pitch? Did you spend any time trying to tune the pump to the rest of your setup?

Compression has to be checked with PV's held open, with the new style PVs this has to be done by hand, or with the spring cap off with the old PV's. It will be SIGNIFICANTLY higher if the valves are closed.
Every assembled motor we build has a build sheet we keep detailed motor specs, including actual compression values when it leaves. Call the shop or RR and we will find out what your compression should be.

Ok I've changed pump with the one from my 760 ported jet which has a tbm and 14/19 skat prop,I've also changed the stock water box to a modified stock w/box,I've also added front foot strap I'll test this tomoz and see if there is any difference hopefully this sorts it out.

Thanks Brian when I did compression test I didn't touch the pv's so I suppose that I got an incorrect reading,it's still very cold here in the uk -3 so havnt had the chance to test it out yet.

Is anyone else having problems with the rickter site? I go to the production selection page and it won't let me select anything.
Also, I noticed they have a XFR listed on the application chart. Has anyone seen any pics or info on this yet? I assume it is similar to the xfs but for freeride??

i dunno why.... im running a billet 145 mag with a 9/15 on a limited 701 and its the biggest difference in the world. i also have a friend running a 144 mag with a ported 701 who had a tbm and a hooker and said the difference is amazing. mag pump all day bay bay
EDIT: both are setback pumps aswell
