Message: [QUOTE="Spokes574, post: 1159410, member: 22918"] Ok. I have been asking folks on this site about the results of using a CDI Rev box. I installed one and wanted to post the results. This is what I learned from others: HP gain is about 8/10th of 1HP and very slight inclease in torque - this came from a repreable well known engine builder who tested recently on thier new team race bike on a new dyno! So the claims of 3hp is not true. Advantage is truely some/ not much overev which gives the ability to shift later Overev studies and testimonials show ~ 30 yards gained before gear tops out Also slightly improved throttle response from the hotter burn and advanced curve. My results on my bike: 1st throttle response immediately on the stand and on the track is much crisper and clean! 2nd bike felt much more responsive and aggressive, almost two stroke like 3rd bike did get some overevv but not a whole lot but enought to be noticable. Other instead of the ussual 2 kicks to start the bike it took 7+ kicks. I called the vendor and they said that the box should improve starting not make it worse and that the box was defective and to send it back. The also said that ~2/50 boxes they sell are typically defective. I also learned that most of these boxes are made from the same manufacture and that other vendors just slap on thier stickers - except for the high end boxes that cost $400+. So I think it was worth the $95 I paid for it. I have more overev that made up a little for the extra tooth I added in the rear, crisper throttle response and more aggessive power feel. The bike feels more 2 strokish now. Spokes574 [/QUOTE]
