My point is this, looking at the mods you have listed for your buggy anything larger then the stock carb would be a total waste of money and actually hurt your performance. Serious engine mods must be done before looking into a larger carb. Not everybody who wants speed just rides on a paved surface. I ride the trails and if not a strategic trail and just a run of the mill trail thru the woods without a lot of ruts I'll run 40 easy and sometimes reach 50 if a long enough stretch. Your correct with the transmission. The cvt really limits these buggies. I had a 50cc cycle and in 4th I got up above 50mph and there was still more but it scared my old %ss. Now if we had a 4 or 5 spd. tranny behind our 150 with a stock engine, speeds would be greater and have more low end.
