To generate more speed you could:
1. Get a more powerful engine.
2. Get an upgraded pipe (not too much of a gain here).
3. Re-gear by selecting a clutch bell with more teeth and a spur gear with fewer teeth (the best option).
4. Lighten the load by removing un-necessary items. For example, if you installed the reverse module...take it off.
5. Get larger diameter wheels.

Other than that, get creative.

Just realize that in most cases, increasing the top speed of the truck causes you to sacrifice things like the off the line acceleration or the trucks climbing ability by reducing the low end torque.

Good luck...and have fun.
 
nice!!!

hi uk savager. well i have this exhaust and its the only one i have used apart from the the stock plastic one. it was better then stock for me and this one will give you a little lower end punch! there are a few other after market pipes out there that will give you a little lower end punch and some will give you top end. just use the search button. as for other hop ups, WELL! i started with a stock savage 21, i have uprated my engine and loads of other stuff. i have prob spent aleast £1500 on hop ups. its so addictive. so be warned! just use the search button. that will help you out so much matey.

cheers g unit
 
thanks

i heard off some one that if you put this mufler on (above) and put a better air filter on it will weelie from a stand still.

Do you know if that is posible?

and if so what parts would u need?
