Ok so here's the story I was debating on getting a newer trx450r 2010-2013 and I ran across this guy who is a tru warrior fan and has built many sick warriors ( I ran into him on CL trying to buy some wheels from him ) . We was talking for almost 2hrs about his builds and basic warrior/raptor stuff and he slowly changed my mind and made me realize how much I love this machine. So he is willing to help me build from ground up for the April hatfield McCoy trip. Here's my question he gave me his input but he's really a all balls out type of guy and im not a money machine so I would like to know what would be the best bank for my buck on a motor build/upgrades ??? Nothing outrages but something to go along with the sick paint scheme we are about to do.
Help with build

Id keep the motor mild maybe just a hotcam exhaust and airbox then focus on suspension

throw a high comp piston and a stage 1 hot cam and some porting and maybe a vito's key and you would have your self some decent power as long as you have a slip on and exhaust and if ya still want to spend more get a better carb

it all comes down to what you want to spend
As for suspension beastly I'm going to do the banshee/660 set-up also as for air intake I'm keeping stock box with a uni filter and holes on lid (for trails) and exhaust he is making a custom exhaust from the curve of the header on back. I'm looking to spend around 6-800 on motor.

Anything is possible if you want to spend the money to make it happen!
question is will it be reliable? more than likely NOT
If your planning on spending between $600 to $800 on building the motor up you'll definitely have a nice noticeable power increase compared to stock just keep it simple if you want reliable

Honestly keep it simple and id stay with the stock link. A arms, axle and good shocks are the best mod

Wanna know what I think? I think you should buy my current engine after I get the stroker in. Lol. Already set up the way you want it. But, then I'd have no spare engine. Decissions, decissions...

Turbos eh... It can be done a lot easier now days, but you've gotta have deep pockets!
I posted this link last summer. Does anybody remember these?

If you want good power and reliability then you can't go wrong with that set up that's what my winter build is gonna consist of in the process of gathering the parts as we speak only difference is I'm going with the WEB .390/.390 cam(which I have along with a S1HC for my current motor just gotta install the HC)
