    Best bang for the buck is heads and easy to change out yourself.

    Then light weight fly wheel

    Then reeds

    Then throttle body

    Then tuner and solid motor mounts at the same time

    Then bore and porting

    sounds like a plan. i was wonder how much the flywheel would help. when you add all the bolt on parts does it let you turn more rpm, or does that take internal work.

    No you are limited in rpms by the ECU. It will let you turn a bigger prop.

    The flywheel is more for hole shot then top end.
