Whats up guys I know this is a pretty frequent topic , but i wanted to hear suggestions on the best kits to enhance my super 8's performance. Right now its top speed is 30 with the restrictor on, and i have hit 35 on downhills. I'd like to get it to go at least in the 40 mph range and have better power/acceleration to help me do wheelies and reach top speed.
Thanks a lot!

Keep reading around the forum... When you figure it out ask where to get the parts...

Yeah dude I did that, not only on this forum but several other ones. I'm looking for a straightforward answer rather than the douzens of different options I've come across, I'm not too sure what will really work the best...

Polini, and Malossi are the top dogs. Malossi not being quite as good in my opinion. There are several "levels" of performance with both. The cast iron kits are longer lived than the aluminum kits, and Either will require a larger carb, as well as a proper pipe to allow the Kit to work correctly.
Expect to be about 7 hundred in the hole by the time you get a kit tuned.
Start with your cvt for some quick gains, and if you still need more from it... consider a kit/bigger bike.
1500 contra spring, and a Malossi/Polini/Jasil var. will get you between 5, and 10 mph for about 100 bucks.

For the Super 8, KOSO brand (Taiwan) really is very popular here.  Have you ever tried these?
