www. AMDchampionship. com performance filter kit. Said to flow more air at full throttle to produce more peak power than other carburetors with bigger venturi bores, at smaller throttle openings, Mikuni’ s smaller, yet higher velocity flowing venturi, together with its advance fuel metering system, is said to provide“ a stronger overall powerband with improved rideability. On a stock engine without any other modifications you can expect it to provide a significant 10 % increase in power and torque, and up to a 25 % increase in power and torque when matched to a higher flowing intake and exhaust system.”
