ive got a 400ex with jet kit, full exhaust, and k+n filter. I wanted a little more power so i was thinking about a 10:1 wiseco piston( so i dont have 2 use race fuel) and a cam. stage 1 or 2? and are the gains worth ur money?

well get the 11:1 piston cause you can still run on pump gas, and it depends where you want your power, stage 1 will help you in lower end, and stage 2 will help you in top end power, also the money it costs you is worth it because you will feel more throttle response and there will be a good bit of additional power

I ride mostly woods, but a little MX.

Based on C&D's recommendation, I'm going with a 10:1 piston and a Stage 2 Hotcam.

I'm also going to the 416 to get a little more displacement.
