I'm using the Arreche 19mm 819/4 with a 115 jet currently.  Seems to be a very nice carb!

The Arreche was a little difficult to get the throttle cable attached.  I had to cut a little off of the metal 90 deg. tube before it goes in the top of the carb because the stock cable wasn't long enough.  Other than that it was a direct bolt on, very nice fit!  It is also super easy to make adjustments too!  I know other people using the Delorto who really like those also.

Slinger-  It is a K&N model #RC-2540.  I ordered it direct from K&N online.  It was $23.

Jarek-  I ordered the carb from Moped Hospital, mhr-usa.com.  I got it with one of their performance packs, but it looks like it is $130 by itself.  I also got a full set of main jets from provoscooter, they are $4 each.
