Don't waste the money on the MSD coil. Also don't waste the money on a carbon plate. D-Cut yours for free. The money saved on those two, can probably get you a port job on your cylinder. Third- get two attwood 500 pumps from walmart, and a tube of 5200 marine sealant. Rough up the bottom of your hull under the coupler and glue them in, that will only be about 45 bucks instead of 179. A bracket is more reliable in the long run, but 179 for a bilge setup is horrendous. Lastly, idk how you feel about putting used stuff on your ski, but you can probably find a used scoop grate for around 100 bucks.

Good luck man, you will be hooked.

Before I got reeds, Enhancer and coil....

I'd get an ADA head and bump up the compression a bit. I'd also get a UMI or Xmetal steering system and bars. Ditch that stock stuff. Matter of fact, I think a steering system and bars would be the first mod I would do on a stock ski. As far as your bilge pumps go, you can hook that up with some attwoods from Wal-mart, some 5200 adhesive, and a couple bilge outlets for about a hundred bucks cheaper. Try the stock ride plate before you go buy one.

Buy used from guys on here and pwctoday and cut your costs in half....Also I would stay away from the MSD coil/enhancer. If you want the most acceleration, total loss is the way to go.

VForce Delta 3 Reed Kit $258.95 (good reeds but other things are more important first)
Ignition Enhancer $274.30 (delete)
MSD Improved Coil $97.00 (delete)
Factory Pipe - B Pipe $775.00 (buy used for $500-$600)
Hydro Turf - Kicker Footwells $129.95
Skat-Trak Intake Grate $217.95 (buy used for around $100)
Impeller $269.99 (get with Impros and get his hooker...it's the latest rave)
Carbon Ride Plate $319.95 (D-cut yours...free)
Bilge Kit, Dual Pump $179.95 (get the attwoods or rules and glue them to the hull for $50-$60)
Aftermarket head to bump up your compression to 175-185 psi for $100-$150 used
Try to find a used digital total loss system for $500-$600 and you'll be amazed at the difference!


New total...$1250 or $1750 with a used total loss system...my 2 cents

thanks, as for the Ignition Enhancer i sold my 95 and i did put an Ignition Enhancer on it... made a huge diffrence the stock cpu went so i figured what the hell, as for reliability does an ADA head and a port job harm it at all? and if im going to get a port job is there much i can do inside the engine for more power?

what kind of steering system and bars are best if it matters im 6'2" and i really want to pull off a barrel this season lol

FWIW, I bought a used pipe before and after about a year of tuning issues come to find out my manifold was out of a 650 and hacked up to make it 701 spec. Point is, just watch out buying used parts. I would not buy another used pipe or any electrical components.
Check out how I set up my ski. Its a nice reliable setup and it rips. http://www.x-h2o.com/threads/18013

I would definitly skip the reeds, coil and carbon plate. IMO there are much better ways to spend $675.90 Like a port job and a bunch of gas/oil. I would also look into a new set of bars/grips, pole spring and ditch the stock chinpad....all super cheap stuff that will improve your ski.

The MSD Enhanser will eventually fail. For the most power you would probably want a total loss set up.
For a budget I would: eliminate rev limiter on stock CDI, lighten flywheel and advance static timing. The only cost is the $55 to lighten the flywheel.

JFW432 has the right idea.

i dont think total loss is a good reccomendation of a new riders first mods....if you dont want to run a MSD cdi then just have stock one modified...
 
i have several enhancers in action with no problems
i agree with no msd coil ,oem coils are good or send yours to jss
ada head is a +
fpp b pipe +
if your goona do foot holds do a one way valve $20 from grainger + some pvc and you will not need 2 bilge pumps

Ya know that REALLY does SUCK. I just had another one die on a ski that I sold to a friend. Granted it was 6-8 years old but still. SUCKS!!!!

He wants to go total loss now and I agree. Can anything fry on TL? Brain? Coils? Wires I'm sure but........

It technically can all go bad, Im not sure of the frequency but I have busted a coil before. Im sure it all depends on riding conditions and maintenence but I dont see why an MSD made cdi could fail and an MSD made ignition box couldn't.

I've got a repitched for more low end solas concord impeller if your interested in saving some money

it's a 12-15 3mm cut back solas concord for $150 plus shipping. it's in good used shape. if you want it perfect i could have it reconditioned at sbt for $30
 
ok, so afew of you have said steering...what should i get i can affored a https://www.wamiltons.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=3&products_id=293 thats too cool looking what do i want -4 -2 0????

thanks

I wouldn't worry about a pole just yet. If you desire in the future, you can cut your stock one down. A steering system is going to be a great mod though!

Get the "Bruins" steering system!!!!! Just PM him on here. It Rocks!!!!! wayyyy better than UMI.

You need:

Intake grate
Impeller
B Pipe
Footholds
Steering system
Bilge
Head (bump compression)

good to go for now.
I say leave the rideplate alone until you ride better.
