I hope it makes me ride slower as it sounds better and more like a merlin engine from a spitfire.!

Pete,
Now you have had it fitted for a while - so whats it really like is the power increase that noticeable and apart from the sound what's the best part of the mod?

To get 150bhp from a 996R, John said I would need a 57mm system. hi comp forged pistons, these won't flex under load. Gas flowed & ported head, compression measured and altered to suite. Cost about 25% of the bikeish

Wow much better than the 998 that i had before.
Best part about it from low revvs non of the shaking like it did before and much smoother with an awsome sound.
I been that keen when i have riding it ive decked out the fairing ooops!

Cost of the 57mm system power commander and set up and dyno £3300 inc vat....No cheap but worth every penny. (Dont tell the wife)

Practically a bargain!

Was with John a week or two ago, and he was saying he's seeing 146Bhp from the 749R that their racing, and now getting 156Bhp from the 999R...

Lily knows what my Xmas present is..... don't you

I'm sure John will be able to lose 300 quid for you...

Or I could just speak to someone else and see about getting that ex-WSB RS04 system...
