This bike had already been tuned with the standard airbox and k&N filter so I just did four runs to get a baseline before the filter change. The best the dyno showed was 141.4 hp.
I then fitted the TuneBoy pod filters (under the bear claw) , added fuel over the upper part of the rev range and retarded the ignition a little.
The bike put out 151.2hp and made more from 3400RPM to the limiter.

If you look at the dyno graph above you will see that the bike now makes its peak torque 1000RPM higher and it carries more torque through to the rev limiter.

I was shocked at the increase in power. I thought the intake was holding back the torque but never expected 10hp over such a large rev range.

I have added this map to the map download page (20050_3).
If anyone wants these pod filters you can buy them from the tuneboy web site.
 
Here's the graph...

I just installed the filter pods and loaded Wayne's tune for it and she is screaming! I do notice some considerable sucking noises coming from the left side when the throttle is on. Increase in power for the lower gears is noticeable. Didn't notice much improvement with high gear roll-on performance though.

Best thing is the tune almost exactly matches my setup (exception is I have wrapped headers) so I get no decel popping (yet anyways - only ridden it for 30 minutes).

Downside... this is the last performance mod I can make before I have to spend big money on a blower system. :twisted:
 
I have the same , noticed more acceleration , more induction noise , and also very little popping . All in all well happy
 
After some more running today, I do notice a little more decel popping in high gear and much more popping when in lower gears by purposefully loading and releasing throttle, but there is no popping when riding normally.

I also noticed popping seemed to increased over time when I did the 20050_2 tune TORs tune, so I'm wondering if the ECU's adaptive learning has something to do with this.

I think I'll try bumping up the fuel mix to see how that works.
