Jetting the carb
-
Then I guess it's ignition related, might be hard to find the problem..

Are you using a genuine coil?
I had something very similar with a Chinese 'race' coil. Took me absolutely ages to get to the bottom of as I rebuilt the whole bike from the ground up and the coil was one of an assortment of new parts.
So I am very wary now of aftermarket coils.

@Elan-n You can make your own using stainless MTB gear cables, use the inline cable oilers as well and you can quickly re-lube them after every wash:

@calum @hotshot-iii @rallyfinnen All right! But so abaut the jetting, so i should have no restrictions on my 2006 dtx. The only upgrades that i have are the reeds that were switched to carbon ones and a spacer between the intake and the reeds. and also the purtagal pipe from romeuhenriques. Current jetting is: idle 17.5 and main 210. Am i supposed to follow the older model with the 240 jets or what should i start with?

Go with the 210 main jet, do a plug chop and adjust to suit.
The CDI on the 2006 DTX (at least in the UK) is restricted. So you won't be getting full power until you derestrict it, even then the performance is still stifled.
Biggest upgrade I noticed to overall performance was a
Zeeltronicignition system.Vastly improved the performance on my DTRE.

@Elan-n Agree with @calum about the Zeeltronic, I enjoyed the process of installing mine and making it look as stock as possible.
Re jetting, I think I'd be contacting Romeu Henriques, tell him about your other mods (intake spacer dimensions etc.) and see what he says. Everyone speaks very highly of his exhaust systems so he will probably have enough knowledge to plug the numbers into some two-stroke tuning equations and help you out.

@calum @hotshot-iii all right, i contacted the seller of the exhaust and he told me to use 245 main jet. So ill try that first. After some time ill get that zeeltronic. Firstly i want to get safely on the road. Piston replace gotta happen too because my piston has 22k kilometers but stil sounds good tho no ratlling or something but i want to be sure

This was the state of my Raptor piston prior to me rebuilding it. Engine was running absolutely tip top prior to dismantling it. But this was a literal ticking time bomb.
