A new end can will get you started. Then you have options depending on how much money you want to spend.

Air Filter will give a bit more
Full Exhaust system will give a bit more on top of that
Then you could get the stock ECU remapped or Fit a power commander that'll liberate a few more BHP.

After that your looking at rebores, and then it starts to get expensive and IMHO its not worth doing, theres only so much BHP the bottom end of the SV engine will take before it goes bang.

If you want a stupid amount of BHP its just not going to happen so if thats what you're after buy a bigger bike...

How fast can you afford to go?

Full system; £500

That is pretty much the first level of tuning, nothing else is going to give you any impressive gains, though boring the throttle bodies out a bit can add some grunt according to zadar.

i went on 'chewys' website, and he has these spocaers for the petrol tank so miore aitr gets in, he reckons this gives more BHP... any views?

Re: BHP
 

i just spent 600 on helibars and ermax belly pan/hugger/undertray etc... so no spare money at present, but what is the best system?

Re: BHP
 

How much more BHP do you want to liberate from your engine ?

Re: BHP
 

dont know, just wondering what you can get??

Re: BHP
 

That depends on how your budget. Theres no hard and fast answer.

Re: BHP
 

Yes, but it's marginal.

How much power do you want?

Re: BHP
 

110bhp, I think there's some French bloke has done it.

It's like warfare that though apparently. Short periods of sheer terror followed by long periods of rebuilding.
