Re: BHP
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...

Re: BHP
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.

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

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