Dynojet, yes or not??

Post by Tana »

Hi, friends. I´m a spanish firestormer (excuse my bad english) and i have a question for the forum.

I can buy a kit dynojet stage 1 for my storm (99 model), and the bike has stock air filter and arrow oval low cans. The kit cost 50 € and i think that it´s cheap, and am thinking to buy it.

What do you think?? It´s needed the dynojet for the firestorm?? Will i need a K&N to take the advantage of the kit dynojet?

The most important for me is the low end and the mid range. I don´t need high revs for nothing. And i like very much improve the gas response, as the ducati´s that i ride some times. The throthle response es very most fast and direct than the japanese superbikes, include the firestorm.

Thank´s for help me and for understand me!!!
BROOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMM!!

PD: Excuse, i was search in this forum about my question, but my english evil does that I´m very slow reading post and understanding it all.

Hi Tana
Yes that is cheep for a Dyno jet kit and No you don't need a K & N air filter if you don't want to. The Honda on works fine.
It will need setting up by a tuning shop to get the best out of it though. If you just fit the parts acccording to the instructions you might be dissapointed.

I am not agreeing with Pete
If you have a stock filter you do not need a dynojet kit

Get a K&N and then use the dynojet kit to jet for that
As a result you will not only get more power but also more miles per gallon

Hope this makes sense

I fitted K&N filter plus Carbon Can Co. cans to my Storm. It ran OK on standard settings (I think the Storm is set up slightly rich anyway) but it did run a bit better after fitting the Dynojet kit.

My recommendations from the guys who dynod mine the other day was to not bother.

Unless you're fitting a high flow filter, the jet kit causes more hassle than its worth.

If you really want a K&N or Pipercross or BMC or other posh filter, then it will need jetting to run properly. It'll also need a proper set up and dyno session.

Whoops I had misread Tana's post :oops: I don't know why but I thought he had bought a cheep kit and wanted to know if it was necessary to buy a K&N for it to work D'oh! :oops:
Nice catch Ben

My opinion
Stock pipes. Leave it alone standard carbs and filter works best.
Must have a K&N with stock pipes. Leave it alone and see how it runs. If you have a flat spot or hesitation somewhere between 4 and 6k rpm. Fit a washer under your needles. No flat spot no worries.
The benefits of a K&N and Dynojet kit on a Std exhaust isn't worth the dosh. But a rear sprocket with an extra couple of teeth it's much cheaper and you'll be a lot happier

Thank´s to all, friends.

I looking for the maximun punch in the low/mid range. The idea of the rear sproket tooth lready had it in mind, but i want to improve the engine response in the 2000/5000 rpm range, and the behavior of an engine continues being the same though you modify the relation between acceleration and maximum speed. Do you understand me??

On the other hand, I like the idea of the sp02 "fast" throttle, but i think that it is not for what I look because the way of delivering power the engine serious the same one.

I need more instant power since the low range of the rpm, not more quantity.

If I say the truth to you, always I notice very much delay of response to the accelerator in the Japanese motorcycles. I think that they make it like that in order that his motorcycles adapt to a major number of persons, ... but there motorcycles transmit fewer sensations to persons that have more experienced.

Any idea to improve the gas response on the firestorm??
Thank´s for all of new. I am grateful very much for your commentaries.

Best regards.
