Hello everyone, I live in pa and have a 2015 gt80 port matched and with reed valve, speed carb, high compression head, lightning cdi, 41t sprocket, stock muffler with no baffling on a Clair mount schwinn cruiser.

I was wondering what the best expansion pipe would give me my top speed? banana or poo poo? or is there something else?

what's the best carb for this engine, I only have 1/4 throttle

I experimented with the some of the available "Poo-Poo" pipes:




And found they offered little advantage over the stock pipe:


Most of any gain was in low rpm torque, pulling away from a stop or up a steep hill, but at a loss of top speed rpm power.

This bike is capable of over 40mph with the stock pipe (and a modified stock head!) and 44t sprocket.
The head pictured is a billet head that does reduce top speed slightly but improves torque at all speeds.
Front right is the best head I have for top speed:

Stock head is at the back.
