They would not help the performance. And since the carbs high speed circut is non adjustable you would have to oder internal jets to make the needed jetting changes. If you want a faster ski you may have to sell that one and get a ski with a larger engine. That would be you cheepist route.

yes you would probably have to re-jet, but adding f/a's you'll notice a difference in accleration. I got mine from parker yamaha and they sell the adaptors too.

I have tried Prock filters on my 770's and they didn't change anything on GPS speed other than it was easier to get to the carb adjusters with the stock box removed.

It may be a little faster now that my wallet is lighter?

Re: aftermarket flame arrestors

top speed? no I don't think it helps with that, at least it's not noticable, but you get there quicker. In closed course, top speed isn't the most important, it's handeling and accleration and with the latter, I have noticed a difference. How many racers out there run the stock air box? Probably not many !! ;)
