thats a big jump and will affect everything from idle to top end,,,,,if your only having a problem with idle, it could be a plugged pilot jet,,,, I dont disagree with the kit though,,,,

Had the same sled and the same problem many years ago. Seems some critter made a nest in the exaust and once cleaned problem solved. Good luck!!
