DYNO readings are a bit like fish stories, you know.. like the one that got away was always the biggest fish you ever hooked.... but never landed.. (fishy story alright!),,
firstly, there are a myriad of factors that can alter dyno numbers on any given day like the human element for one, barometric pressures, ambient temperatures, humidity and just plain errors, it's also not too difficult for a dyno operator to come up with a 'more favourable' reading just by fiddling a bit - not saying that they do, but they can!
some exhaust systems can provide an extra little bit of output, but more importantly they provide a 'note' which excites the rider and gives the 'impression' of more power and a better feel,,
the bottom line is, as long as your busa is running ok it produces close to 160hp - give or take a few ponies, depending on mods and on which day it was built etc, and as such it's pretty much the most powerful production beast in the world, so why stress over a few ponies which really only come into their own at the very top end ??????
