Our testing was done with:
stock camshafts, stock pistons and stock valves and cylinder
head and an aftermarket exhaust system.
and using the stock air filter and, later, the Factory Pro BMC RACE filter.

Tuning to Best Power
The way we were, the way we are, the way we will
be.
Because we're right.
RED =
2 Factory Pro Billet stacks and
2 short stock stacks
and
still the stock exhaust
Dec 10, 08
Initial testing shows a healthy 4-6 hp boost, starting at
about 7500 rpm and peaking at indicated 12,000 rpm.
There's a 5-6 boost at 8000, a 2-3 loss at 9000 and 3-5
boost above that.
When looking at
the torque curves, you can see that the stock stacks produce a
"bumpy" torque curve and the Factory Pro prototype stack stacks
produce a wider, smoother, better averaging torque band.
It looks like neither the zx10 or the zx6r
like oval stacks. I might go out on a limb, here, but, I don't
think that anything with a tuned intake tract likes an oval
intake inlet.
All the HP figures are TRUE HP, not "dynojet HP). To
get rough dynojet HP, multiply TRUE HP x 1.1 to 1.15 (depending on
which dynojet dyno you want to try to mimic)
BLUE = all stock stacks, with stock
exhaust
RED = 4 short stock stacks
4 KAWASAKI "SHORT" stacks, without FI retuning,
seem to hurt the lowend (at least at full throttle and
without FI retuning) and doesn't much help the topend.
Even though the EC997 dyno results show a slight gain at
high rpm, the "gain" is well within a 1.2 HP tolerance.
All the HP figures are TRUE HP, not "dynojet HP). To get rough
dynojet HP, multiply TRUE HP x 1.1 to 1.15 (depending on which
dynojet dyno you want to try to mimic)
Notes from testing December 2008
1. Cooling system capacity good.
2. Bike tends to overcool, could use 185f thermostat to stabilize
tuning settings and power output in cool weather.
1.0 to 2.0 TRUE, Loaded, real HP
(no misleading dealership level dynos used in
testing!)

On the graph (click on it), you can even see that
the fuel delivery was a bit leaner with the BMC - as evidenced by the
lower red CO% line -
CO% is a much better way to derive estimated A/F Ratios as compared
to wideband O2 sensors.

BMC Street filter

Street filter = Same as stock HP
(no misleading dealership level dynos used in
testing, either!)

Feedback
Marc,
Just wanted to say "Thanks", again. I'm really impressed by your calling me to give
me the info on the advance rotor. That, in my book, is "Going the extra mile."
That's what makes a company succeed.
Congrats!

The extension of the laboratory
for engines of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology was completed
in about 1935. Its architect was Rudolf Otto Salvisberg (1882-1940).
He had a successful career in Berlin but returned to Switzerland after
the advent of the Nazis. His architectural style was somewhat similar
to that of Erich Mendelsohn. The staircase of the laboratory is in normal
use but well preserved.
