no jetting changes needed your not changing the amount of air your moving just make sure you us premium gas
It will add some low to mid power and throttle response. Much the same effect as increasing the compression. It is rare, but I have seen a few engines that want more fuel with timing advance.
Just like WILDCARD said... "It will add some low to mid power and throttle response." and yes you will fell the diference, in my case i went from a 13 sprocket to a 14 (+ speed) and she still takes off faster then she used to.
i should be putting the degree key in mine in about 2 weeks when i get my +3mm crank installed. hopefully that'll give me enough power down low that i can get rid of the reed spacer and get the full slam of the powerband back.
Do you bealive that the reed spacer is responsable for that loss of kick trough the powerband ? I felt that on mine but since i placed VForce3, +4 key,rejeted the carb, toke the air cover off, at the same time, i kinda got lost.:-/
yes to me it makes the powerband less violent but the advantage is that it gives you more power for more of the rpm range. instead of just having killer top end power you can have very good power the whole way through the range.
some dissagree and say they do nothing tho, so you'll get different opinions depending on who you ask.

Gess the only way to know for sure is to try it out, i´ll give a go this weekend. thks
save money and do it your self, anyways, i have a reed spacer, and the powerband has noticable kick to it, (cpi) so i dont believe spacers just take all the kick away, your pipe is the number one item that will determine you powerband, and where it comes in, porting does also, but your supposed to match porting to exhaust, if you have a low end port job, and a top end pipe, you will still have top end, because exhaust is everything
in my case i think that the reed spacer pulls alot out i also heard that the reed spacer is often complained about because they crack reeds
they're suppose to increase torque and increase reed flow by increasing reed slide clearance.
key words in that are SUPPOSE TO. lol i havent really ever heard much good stuff about them
