    Jet Kits or just Jets?????????

    Hey everybody I just order a T-4 Pipe for my 300ex. Now for jetting is it worth getting a jet kit or just buying jets 1 by 1.

    Basically here is my problem.
    I have a bone stock 300ex. By the end of the week I will have a T-4 Pipe, uni filter with holes in the lid.
    THis is my first quad and do not know where to start on the jetting. I see alot of 300ex riders start at 150.

    THe kits run about 50 bucks but the jet's only run like 4 bucks if I can get away with just buying a couple of jets , thats a good thing.

    Any help would be greatful to me.
    THanks in Advance

    I advise you just buy like around 3 jets, at 4 bucks a piece, you will come out with a $12 bill instead of the $50. Plus, you dont really need the jet kit. Since you already have a filter, just use dishwashing liquid, and an old tooth brush on cleaning your filter. And, just keep buying jets till you have the jetting down(it will be much cheaper like this, you could buy 12 jets and still have money left over than buying a kit)...

    buying seperate jets is by far the cheapest way to go.

    That's the way to go. Jet kits are a waste of money.

    I totally agree. Your never going to need all the jets they give you and you dont need the needles.
