There was no valve float at 7800, and the engine suffered no ill effects from turning that RPM. However, my tune leaned out from 11.7 AF @ 7500 RPM to 12.2 AF @ 7800 RPM. Boost is in excess of 20 psi! The big news is that the 668cc Siemens injectors supplied by TTS are maxed out above 7500 PM. To properly tune a SC R3 over 7500 for speeds of 190+ MPH, larger injectors are required. I knew that larger injectors would be necessary at 8500 RPM, but didn't know just where the 668cc ones would max out. Now we know. We already knew that the "V-Stack" air filter pressurizes at 175 MPH, as it leaned out my AF by 1/2 point at that speed. I estimated that it would lean out by a full point or more at 200 MPH, so was hoping to tune for about 10.8 AF at 7800 RPM. That's impossible to do with the injectors I have now, so there's no point in trying for a 190+ MPH run when we'd run the risk of lean out at those speeds.

The good news is that I do know which injectors to use, and now know that I need the Carpenter valve train and forged pistons to reach 200 MPH... at some RPM over 8000.

Other SC R3 owners please note: DO NOT TRY THIS WITH YOUR BIKE!

My bike is specifically set up to make power at higher RPMs. I use much longer duration cams than stock, with much greater lobe separation, have an intercooler that halves my intake charge temps at 20 PSI boost, and a high volume fuel pump that can supply more than enough fuel for that boost. I'm also running 100 octane fuel (my own blend). A "standard" SC R3 will detonate at those boost levels due to excessive intake temps even if it has a high volume fuel pump. That's why the standard SC R3 has the IAT sensor before the supercharger (otherwise it would melt). Mine is mounted in the intake plenum just before the throttle bodies, where it does what it's supposed to.

All that said, she really ripped fine in the cool air this morning! She actually pulls harder from 6500 to 7700 than she does from 4500 to 6500. All that boost doing it's thang!
