Post by jamadi112233 »

is there anything else that you can do other than taking the washer out, or switching pipes?

well i would think that once you get all the washer out(believe thats the only restriction) you should get almost 30. other then that,change gears,maybe bigger tire,bbk,and if you find a pipe that works for the spree and is not loud please do tell!!!

well it seems there is a restriction in the muffler its self. {or the previous pipe had some serious carbon phlegm} I switched a pipe in from an 87 spree and am now hitting 30.

on the iowa spree if you remove the exhaust and look at the cyl side of the pipe you will see a washer that is welded in to restrict flow thus making the scooter slow. remove it by grinding or swap pipes and walaa 30 mph.
