With resticted pipework and a standard air filter then it realy does not matter what you put as it wont make a diffrence. Now this is not 100% certian but genernal thoughts are that the SV stock pipework is very restrictive and if so then adding a race can would not make a diff.

I'm guessing here but I'll go for 'All of them won't add any power'

None of them add enough power to measure, so forget about it and buy the one you like the most (I reckon some will show some power advantage, not much mind, but it'll be within teh errror margin of a dyno so it might as well not exist.)

Sod that, i am still restricted at the mo just wack the a decent straight through on it, or at least one of thoes with the baffle you can put in/out. no insurance company is gona go through the effort of getting your bike on a dyno to test your output incase of a claim, and they would need to do that to prove its nore than 33bhp.
