I fitted a dynojet kit and a K&N filter to my 2002 SVS a

It is bloody great! I am not a real expert on modification, I have always wondered about uprating suspension etc. but never felt I would notice the difference seeing as I use the bike mainly for commuting.
Well I fitted the dynojet kit l;ast weekend along with a friend of mine( an ex Bike mechanic) and a K&N filter and the Bike is a lot different.
I have a Remus carbon fibre legal Can, this always sounded better than the stock pipe but is still not unreasonabley loud, neighbour friendly really.
I tell you though, the sound of the SV has always been great especially when engine braking. The diffderence I have noticed is that after dynojet the sound is more of a snarl than a growl, more induction noise and a sharper and more ' subaru impreza' type bark at the exhaust.
It is faster too, I have spent a long time deciding what was Placebo effect( seeing as It cost me a few hundred quid) and what i could realy tell in terms of performance. The best wayu I can describe it is that The SV did everything as before, except after jetting, everything seemed that much easier, which I camn only put down to increased horsepower.
If you are undecided but have always wondered about dynojet, Get a mechanic to help/do it because it's not for the novice. It definitley improved the sound and performnance of my bikYou will notice the difference. Go for it.

I agree. I had the same thing done. Peep the pics below:

It was worth about 4BHP on the top for my bike, but the improved throttle response and increased mid-range are all worth it.
You didn't say what size main jets you've installed?
Was it stage 1 or stage 3 dynojet kit?

Its a Stage one kit and I ca'nt remember now as all the stuff is at work but you know you get four sets of jets? we put in the second largest as the bigger ones were for a high flow can. My can is a legal remus so I figured its not amazingly high flow.
Thankfully Dynojet have changed their logo to something a bit less Harley Davidson and the stickers look cool on the tailpiece!

:D

I think 136DJ was the second biggest for the stage 1 kit.
I fitted the 138DJ but have a not so road legal Zorstec.
My neighbours haven't complained, but when I leave early I roll it up the driveway to the street before I fire her up.
