Does K&N and Dynojet make a difference
Re: Does K&N and Dynojet make a difference
When i had my 2000 model i fitted k&n and dynojet kit, bike ran spot on, dynoed it just to check and it didn't need anything else doing, also ran a std filter with all the paper removed and still didn't need to alter the d/j jetting, made nearly another 2hp with that filter (used only on track like that).

Nice find Mr Carl. Just bought it. Was the road one, and I was going to put a new'un in soon anyway, so I''ll have a pop. Aint going down the dyno time route, so if it doesnt work with my settings it might end up for sale. Fingers crossed.cybercarl wrote:I also run a BMC street filter.
There one in Latvia here. No tax from EU. It doesn't say if it's the street or race version though,

Re: Does K&N and Dynojet make a difference
It's possible that with the K&N it was slighly rich (was ok on fuel though) then with the modded std filter it would be slightly lean, it was along time ago and i don't remember what the A/F was, but i do know it wasn't an issue.cybercarl wrote:That just makes no logical sensealso ran std filter with all the paper removed and still didn't need to alter the d/j jetting,So you basically ran no filter. Didn't the extra air upset you A/F ratio then.

I fitted the d/j kit, including drilling the slides (can't remember if the kit had springs though) I used the middle jets supplied which was for after market pipe and filter. with the paper out of the std filter it's a gauze in the std plate, I never touched the carbs when swapping between K&N and the gauze filters. It ran perfectly on the road, and on the track In two meetings I won 5 races and got a race speed record for the class at Lydden... which i still hold

Let me know how you get on with this as I have a 2000 firestorm with fuel rear cans and I have bought a pipercross filter and I'm looking at getting it dyno-jetted . If anyone can recommend and decent tuners in the surrey/hants area that would be great as well

Re: Does K&N and Dynojet make a difference
I got a pipercross fitted mate, took my carbs off soooooooooooooooooooooooooo many times, got it very fine tuned, actually drilled the 3rd lift hole and then fitted a flo-commander. runs sweet nowskytrooper21 wrote:Let me know how you get on with this as I have a 2000 firestorm with fuel rear cans and I have bought a pipercross filter and I'm looking at getting it dyno-jetted .

Lighten the flywheel too after putting a 43 tooth sprocket on the back. Cheap mods, huge smiles.
missing the noise, not the vibes. However never say never!

Thanks I ended up taking the bike to Steve Johnston motorcycles in Bookham, had a stage 1 kit fitted, a tune up and a session on the rolling road, running great now .bigtwinthing wrote:Doubletake Motorcycles in Southampton.
