WT-488 CARB ON CY26

does anybody know any actual figures, torque/hp gains for this mod?
ive read many things and some contradict each other.
it seems to be a good option in terms of £$ if there are real benefits, compared to say a reed conversion or the boost bottles:eek::).
any factual help greatly appreciated.

kind regards,
paul.

you can't compair it like that, it's just a bigger carb over stock, bigger jets , no butterfly choke valve results in more air flow .

The answer is there.... this is about as specific as you can get without a dyno

More air means more grunt across the RPM range, but it must be tuned so as not to bogg.
