i would think you would get a little more power with the 11:1 piston and stage 2 cam, but you may lose some reliability with the higher compresion ratio. you should be ok though, i wouldnt go past the 11:1 without having a stronger rod installed. if you go with the 11:1 set up you may want to heli coil the head studs.

i would get the cam and piston first, for sure.

stage 1 cam= better low to mid range power

stage 2 cam= better mid to high range power

i did the 11:1 stock piston and cam, and i am so impressed. you will have to watch the fuel you run, but it is way worth it in my opinion

what kind of fuel do i need to run, race gas or half n half?

your fuel requirements will mainly be determined by what compression you run.

you dont have to run race gas with the 11:1 but it may help it run cooler and would be better for the engine. i run 100 octane in mine, sometimes 104, just depends on what i have been runnin in my mx bikes and what i have at the time.
