I am thinking of sending Carb out to RB Carb Designs. I have a 220 with a FRP ported cylinder and a boyesen rad valve, fmf woods pipe. Will I gain more bottom end as well as top end? Will I need to run race gas? I currently run 93.

Re: KDX220
You don't need race gas unless the cranking compression has been increased beyond spec by a head mod.
I know you said Carb but with the RB std. head mod , pump gas works fine.
I'm a strong advocate for non-ethanol in a 2 stroke , buy it if you can get it.
Stay away from octane boosters

Re: KDX220
I just got my 220 head back today from RB . What a beautifull job !
Just no comparison to the local job I had done to the 200.
Turn around time was great as I mailed it out the 10th and got it back on the 18th.

Did you have the carb mod done as well, or just the head mod done ???

Just the head mod was in the budget for now. I have a 35mm on my 220.

Ya, seems like 95% of most folks get both, just curious how you like it, looks like it's going to be awhile before you test given the severe weather you Guys are having.
