in regards to the 200 ponie's own a 08 gen 2, with 4-2-1 factory yoshi system bmc filters an power commander tuned by Nevil lush down Victor harbour( top bloke) on nice cool day i would say 195rwhp. trust me you feel it on the right morning, 200 just a bees dick away eh. i say oh yeah it can happen. still wanna turbo though 
Don't forget that a nice small, light exhaust system will drop a lot of weight too, which is like increasing power. That stock system is callosal, that's why I want to go brocks, such a luxury to be able to drop so much weight from an already heavy bike AND benefit from some hefty gains. Can't wait!
Pete/Maj - Heard a lot about certain air filters suffocating the engine a little bit, would a gen2 benefit from a BMC filter? Road or Race? Or better leave it alone and save 70 bucks?

However, whatever you ride, be it a vmax or a Postie, if you love it that's all that matters. I know I don't have to prove a thing.
best statement I have read on hear so far FG 
Sutur, if you change to an aftermarket air filter you will need to get it re tuned as the air flow will be way different. I am using a K & N but put it in during my flash tune, it only made about 2 hp difference on the dyno

I'll very rarely use the top end on my k8 (if ever) but drool over the 136ft/lb torque. Thats where the bus really rules. Mark

Well F&*%k me, had my 08 on the dyno last week and I was given a graph showing RW HP 174, give or take some, who cares.
The dude reckons that it was a pretty good result compared to other Gen 2 bikes he has dynoed.
So for those who think they are getting 200 RW HP with the additions of slip on's and filter I think some thing must be seriously wrong with the dyno they are using or a lot of drugs are being smoked

Dave, your bike sounds about spot on to me, our K8 shopbike made 173Hp & 101ft/ibs dead std. We tuned up a gen 2 with a BMC filter, full yoshi zorst (can't remember what model) and PC3 = 185hp&106ft/lb. But our dyno ( brand new dynojet 250I) reads a bit lower than some of the others in sth oz. I don't really think 200hp is realistic without opening up the engine.
Garbo did you mean 136 N/M of torque?

200HP from a Gen2 without opening the cases, what are some of you guys on.The numbers above are more like the truth.
A friend of mine has a Gen2 with 179/105 with full yoshi system and Tuning Link mapped P/C. Goes like s#!t of a shovel compared to a Gen1 but it's a long way from 200hp.

another 7 hp is a very long way away

Dunno wot others torque figures are but I am sure that is wot the last dyno graph was. 4to1,filter,pc3. 192hp,136ft/lb. I have just fitted velocity stacks and am getting a major service done in the next few weeks so will throw it on the same dyno again. Let's see wot happens. Maybe I was dreamin? Mark

i have seen Gen 11 at 178 and 198 with pipe and PC. The only way to do the sums is on the same dyno and that wont happen. But 136 ftlbs that would be for a 1440 cc + engine.
How much of a difference in power would you guys say breaking in the bike hard (properly) vs breaking in the bike as per owners' manual would make uhm...before modification?
