OK....this is what you guys have been waiting for...I took a lot of side by side pics comparing a 1988 Venture vs 1999 Vmax intake system! (see below for DIR of files, detailed huge pics)
1988 Yamaha Venture Standard, 75K miles You cannot just throw the parts on and make more power. And only having it work at Wide Open. This is not going to work properly. The Vmax was designed with the main jets to match the Vboost opening(6000+ w/9500redline). Which way will you need to jet? I do not know which way? Maybe down because now you are filling each cylinder from 2 carbs. The cylinder can only digest so much mixture. Remember the Vmax cams and valve springs are different for higher rpms. Another guy did what you are trying. I don't remember his name. His bike did make a few more hp. a bit higher up past 7k than a stock one. I recommend a K&N filter too. Get the boost to open at about 4500-5000 and I think that may be best. That's when the mains start. - Jasonm As far as the Jetting I already have that covered as I have a full set of sizers and reamers from my VW dual carb days...I also have a LM1 which is a wide band 02 tuning meter...so tuning should not be an issue...nice thing about it is I can just leave the vboost off unil I get it dialed in 1988 Yamaha Venture Standard, 75K miles
