I had the power now in my kfx 400 and it did work. It gave it more snap on the take off. The throttle response was quicker. It was worth the money I thought. It was really easy to install. It went on the intake side of the carb and it slides right into place and put intake tube back on and done.

You could have removed the airbox lid and rejetted for about $8 and gotten more power and the same response out of your bike. The powernow does the same thing as what proper jetting would do. Getting the appropriate air/fuel mix at the correct rate. You could have saved $80

Well then I would like for you to please explain for the rest of the people who doesnt understand exactly what it does, Genius! I am done arguing about it. I've already bought one used and tried it and noticed absolutely nothing. So I am sure you can enlighten the rest of the folks who dont know what you know about it.
