What would have a better result on my Raptor 350?

Question

I have a 06 se raptor 350 and I need to know what will give me more power. Will a slip on exhaust or a chain and sprocket kit give more power and acceleration? If a slip on will what is a good one under $275

Answer 1

GYTR® Oval Muffler





Passes the 96 dBA 20" stationary test used by authorites in some public riding areas. Provides over 25% increase in midrange horsepower and a 2 peak horsepower gain. Features include:

Ball-burnished aluminum shell with stainless steel inlet pipe.

Ball-burnished 6061-T6 aluminum end caps

this is the recomended upgrade for the raptor, its made by the oem. but its 350.00 , look for it on ebay or in the papers, or on sale norm 25% off (about 90.00 off)

Answer 2

Go with the chain and sprocket, it is the most in-expensive way to improve acceleration, it should run you about $60.  You will need to go with a larger rear or front sprocket. That will help you to accelerate much quicker. It will however lower the top end speed.

The slip will give you a touch more power, but then you will have to rejet the carb, so it is more expensive all the way around.

Answer 3

I have an 06 raptor 350 also. the first thing i did was put a HMF sport series slip on and a jet kit on it. It woke it up a good bit. the pipe was $250 i believe. the jet kit was around $45.. I have also fooled with the sprockets i think mine had a 13 or 14 tooth stock front sprocket so i purchase a 12 tooth aftermarket sprocket and i could tell a difference in acceleration. It cost around $20.. to get more acceleration you go down teeth on the front and up teeth on the rear sprocket.. I also put a BIG GUN CDI ignition box and i believe it has helped me out the most. It removes the rev limiter up 1000 more rpms and gives you 3hp which is a good bit. It paid around $120 for it.
