you need to change your oil about every 10 hour and if you havent you better do it quick. the dm kit will help be what you need to change your map haydug the site sponsor sells them for 305 shipped they are easy to use. a hot pipe sounds like a lean condition and you will def need the dm kit. you will need to re cal the tps (throttle position sensor). There are very helpful members like cannondale27, wistech, haydug, ******, and others that can help you alot:)

Read, ask questions, enjoy the addiction. It will have its highs and LOWS. But there is a good support group here.

If thats a speed why does it have the round early exhaust. I thought only the fx400 and cannibals had that system. Does that mean hes got a mc500 ecm to? If so then he cant use a d&m kit.

One thing to add to the trans oil change.

This is a quick and easy fix to help putting the trans filter back in.

Thanks cannondale27!
