I was wondering if anybody has put the crf carb on the trx. I need some help getting this thing dialed in. I am currently running the stock exhaust with a open airbox lid. I have a 172 main, 45 pilot, and the air screw is 2.5 turns out. Any help is greatly appreciated.

You might PM Rico'450R, he has a FCR carb on his quad.

I think you will have to jet up on your main....172 is a bit to small.

On the Hotcam box it said CRF450 02-04, so I think it has the same spec's as the CFR cam!

are you running no air box lid?

Brian22 jetting FCR40 and FCR39 are going to give you 2 different results.

Im currently running without the airbox lid. It seems to run fine on top, but with it sitting there idling it sounds as if it has a miss. I am just wondering if my pilot is a little bit to big. If I just barely blipe the throttle and let up it starts to run rough. I have a 42 pilot and I am going to try that. Thanks for all the help.

One thing I forgot to mention is you must put in account where you live. Jetting will be different depending on where you live because of altitude and climate!!!!

 

[Brian22]

I was just going to tell that I got this dialed in. Man does this carb make a difference. The throttle response is unreal. TRX all the way.

Were did you guys get the carbs & how much were they?
