I was not expecting a gain, and I got a good one. I pushed it to 1/2 throttle and it threw me back in my seat...rather hard. I think they really opened up the other mods I did. Oh, and I am running the stock airbox.
Dangit that's the second time today I've shot my mouth off before reading the whole post. I think the nice shiny pictures distracted me I might have to add these to the build list. Thanks.

I just realized I didn't put anti seize on the bolts.....dangit.

Well, I only drove it 3 miles. Probably some PB residue still in there. I can fix that this weekend.
