Jetting isn't hard if you've ever turned a wrench and I did mine without a torque wrench. There are a couple good threads here with pics on your bike I think.

Your best bet is to go back through this board and search for all the things you have questions about. Everything you asked about has been covered multiple times here on the board. Many times with detailed write ups and pictures. For most mods there is no single "right" way to do it. You can see that just in this thread, with the varying opinions on the snorkle. Nobody is wrong on that one, just different preferences. My advice on the snorkle is to just pull it out and run like that. If you find that it's too loud, etc. then buy a kdx snorkle. Use the search there is a ton of info on here.
Congrats on the bike, you are going to have a blast with it.

Party-pooper. Dan, I was just honing my typing skills and trying achieve about 80wpm. If people use the search and cruise function on the board, I'll never achieve my goal.

Or you could get a good exhaust and buy the Muzzy....oh no he di'int!!! Just kidding, these guys know thier pipes, I bought the Muzzy and after 14,000 miles its still perfect, I repacked at 10,000 and the packing still looked new! Yes jet the bike, full pipe, the 13-45 is the perfect setup, so you are already on the right track.
