If you can avoid boosting then you are a better man than me!  :p

I\'m on standard setup, therefore 0.7 bar (or 10psi) - the conversion rate is 14.7psi = 1 bar

Yes but the Stock Twins had done 40,000+ miles and suffered 3 years of my W.O.T. including 6 months of 1.3 bar of boost road, track and strip work. So I for one am not going to complain at all. In fact I take my hat off to the Japs for some fantastic engineering. Those Twins made 462.8 bhp at the fly. There are a lot of singles that can\'t make that. We all knew they were going to go, it was not a matter of if, but when and to be honest I did it in style. When they did go I like to think that I gave a lot of people some pleasure both at the strip on the day and later on the forums.
 Thats Racing and I love it. As soon as I can get the time to get the FD down to Geff then we will slap another set on and I will put them through hell on the road and strip. :3gears-lh  :chat
