so i just got this 87 elite, it's not an elite s or anyting, but for some reason it had a restricted variator ramp plate in it, i put stock ramp plate from a 92 elite, the 87 doesn't have a restricted muffler, but when i got it it ran at 23 mph, but now it's at 27. what would you guys recomend a good roller weight would be? because right now i have in 3 13g rollers, and 3 9 g rollers. for a total of 66 g's, that seems a little heavy but that shouldn't affect the top speed right? what can i do to make this little thing go atleast 30 or 35 without any major modifications?

It had the restricted ramp plate, why do you say muffler is not restricted? Hopefully you're not looking for a washer in the head pipe.

i was looking right where the muffler connects to the head in the pipe itself, isn't that where it's at?

It is in the diameter of the head pipe itself. Skinny pipe restricted fat pipe unrestricted. Evil where's the link?

well either way i took the muffler off of the same moped that i got the ramp plate from, now it tops out at 35 mph, that's iffy though, usually 33 or 34 mph, i'm pretty happy with this, but if im correct the rear gears in the other unrestricted moped is different then the one in my 87? so if i swap those out i should gain some mph?

Check your jet to be sure it will match your pipe.
