Default Dyno completed today!!!

Good afternoon everyone. This morning I rode down to a shop that had a dyno with the tuning link software and had her dynoed for $200 plus tax.
It only took him like 45 minutes to get it done.
Now I am a little upset over a few things and maybe its just me.
First I just installed the quiet baffles to get that lower tone, when he went to enter the tube to measure air fuel mixture he noticed there wasn't a hole, he then drilled one to get it in there. Said I wouldnt notice a difference in noise or power.
I do notice a difference in tone.
Also he only drilled the one in the front cylinder exhaustand just mapped the rear cylinder with the same map.

However I am not sure how to post the results I will get that done this week.

But when he started he asked if there was any motor mods done other than the Stage 1, exhaust and power commander. I said no which there isnt.

He did the dyno and when he was complete he asked again, did you do any work to this, like cams?
mmmmm Still a no.

I asked why? His answer it ran really good for this motor.

Max Power= 80.44
Max Tourque=84.82

I am impressed. I was just hoping for 75 to 77 horse power.
I guess I am pleased in a way though. Still no back firing or decel popping. It is very smooth and my gas mileage went up, cant tell how much though as of yet.
Please post your comments or suggestions.
Thanks everyone.

He mapped the rear cylinder the same as the front? That explains the quick turnaround. The rear runs much hotter,whuch is why yuners usually map it separately. But hey, if you're happy with your numbers, ride it and smile!

I asked about the rear cylinder and he said that it didnt need to be done. He really didnt explain anything that he did. I am happy with the numbers. However do you think they would be better if he had done the rear as well?
