I have read about them, but never known anyone to use them.  First off they will cancel your warranty.  They will shorten the life of your engine due to raising your max rpm range. They also change the ignition curve which normally requires premium fuel. Just from those facts I would not be interested in them. Mostly used by folks that race, and I dont do that as going fast can be fun but the sudden stops just hurt to much

yeah I'm not overly confident how it would work out and I looked all over for people who had them put on their machines I think i'll just stay clear of that till I see more people start using them or until something better comes along all I'm looking for is to boost the HP a little bit

If you need more hp buy a higher hp machine or suffer shorter engine life and a lot more maintenence..Most people that have had long life success and few problems have left there machines mostly stock, however there are those that just like tinkering on them

you would do better spending the money on clutch work to take better advantage of the power you already have
