get a slip on or full exhaust and take your airbox lid off and you will notice a night and day change

what kind of racing do you plan on doing?
if mx then i would suggest suspension mods,make it wide and get a good set of shocks or get your stock ones setup better for your riding style.

tires is a good 1st inexpensive mod!also skid plates too!you may wanna do a 15tooth front sprocket this is also cheap and youll notice a nice top end increase!i would reccomend waiting on an exhaust if your gonna buy a slip on id wait and do a full system then intake will need to be done next along w/a pc3!the mod quad filter kit is a nice mod and youll see a small improvment w/it!suspension will be the best money spent so choose wisly!

for a good pipe on a budget the jardine 99 hard to beat its a full exhaust that gives real gains in hp kB has them at a good price
