I'm just hoping it has a restriction in the air and not one in the exhaust as I dont fancy taking exhaust apart  :-\ But I suppose I better have a look at the mount.. see if theres one there, if theres not I'l just leave it.

Learn by your mistakes as I've experienced not long ago with my CDI blowing!  :D

Hope not. Might just not bother and just get a performance one later on. I hope I find a restriction in the air intake though and it gives me a bit more mph!

..the thing you must keep in mind is, that if you significantly increase the flow of air into your carburetor, there's a chance you'll need to increase the size of your main jet...

ive taken out out something connected to the air filter, a funnel type thing?
it doesn't seem to do much but i thought that was what was meant by funnel in air filter, i'm not sure though, if anyone has a picture of what this actually is could you upload it please? also someone told me their super 8 4t had a restricter in the exhaust by private message if that helps?

..dunno why a 4t would have that in the exhaust...

..anything that you can remove from the air intake, that increases the tubing's diameter is a plus...

there is the variator restriction, the plate in the exhuast to hammer out and you need to change the jets aswell to let more fuel in. oh also forgot to mention he changed the gears too which made top end and acceleration better
this is definiately for the kymco super 8 4t

..welll...that statement makes no sense to me...

..trust me, leave the OEM gy6 exhaust alone until you replace it...

..i'm speaking from experience...

but i'll take your word for that for now, thanks :D
