Does anyone have any experience with this kit? I have been considering buying this since it hit TB's website. I've been skeptical about the head getting a little noisy on my GPX150 now, for the price of TB's kit I don't think I could go wrong.

I'm curious about what I would need to do with my carb, currently I'm running VM26 with 17. Pilot and stock main. Would I be better off keeping the 26 and further jetting it? I planned on buying TB's 26 main jet set, I still have a 20. pilot to play with. I'm worried I would need to port match my intake manifold for the new head as well.

You'll love it! Add the new rear-facing manifold for even more fun, and no need to break out the Dremel

I know some guys prefer the slightly softer hit of the 150, that still revs out awesome. Hooks up better, I feel. We run 22.5/180-ish to start on a VM26.

Everyone has told me it's a must do. The power is in the head and the V2 gets it.......
