    hi tuning gurus I have purchased a performance exhaust for my 50cc Yamaha ca50 and everyone has said it may need up jetting so if I have to up jet I may as well run an open filter e.g. foam pad over carb if so how much would I need to up jet I was thinking about 20 sizes bigger e.g. if mine is 70 jet run a 90 jet although as well as speed increase I want to have a reliable scoot as well because its my only way of getting to college any help appreciated :rolleyes:

    up jet for the exhaust fogret the air filter idea. will swallow fuel, be slower and sound super loud. their also a pig to jet correctly. just upjet 10% for the exhaust

    most 2 strokes seize due to incorrect jetting. what may seem ok may be too hot and too lean. i wouldnt risk it for something as cheap as a new main jet

    i upjetted by over 12% and it drove great with little smoke etc. i reckon stock would have lean seized long ago
