Clubhead, thanks for the report.

Sucks that the torque dropped on you. I had a feeling that would happen. You actually need a certain amount of backpressure for torque. And you're absolutely right...hp up on top is great for the racer, but for the street torque is king (especially in a place like Singapore).

Thats what I thought you would do since your results were not favorable. I thought I would give it a shot.

I'm intending to wait till after I put in the Powerflow air filter kit to decide. This will probably be 2-3 weeks time. I'm hoping that the increase air flow will result in higher torque in the lower rpm range.... I hope.

But in anycase, given that I'm in Asia, you probably would not want to incur the shipping charges to get this to you in US. There's a couple of Tequipment on ebay going at very reasonable prices, like about US$1k. You may want to check those out instead....
