stock 103 usually makes 75hp to 78hp right out of the box, good pipe, air cleaner and a stage 1 efi upgrade usually produces 14-18 additional HP at best.

Conditions: 78.24 deg. F Barometer - 29.90 in-Hg Humidity 15% SAE 0.98
Note on the report says "FINAL STREET 10% E.F." don't know what that means...
something else to consider is the dyno sae SAE:
"SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers), USA. Power is corrected to reference conditions of 29.23 InHg (99 kPa) of dry air and 77 F (25°C). This SAE standard requires a correction for friction torque.

SAE will give more realistic and consistant numbers. Also make sure the number next to the correction stays the same, if they change that number between runs they can inflate the numbers on the work they did. if you really want to know more about dyno measurements there are some great resources out on the web. Also 5 gear pulls will give higher output readings than 4 gear. It's a land of smoke and mirrors, the dyno should be used to get your bike in the best running condition, what counts is how it feels when you ride. Peak HP and TQ are great for racing, but if your bike is usually not in the peak HP/TQ range it really doesn't help you.

There final street value is simply a give or take percentage based on real world conditions as riding the bike on the street may yield better power/TQ readings

I'm also thinking these look like stock #'s. It certainly responds better and feels like it has more power. Gotta run by there tomorrow, I'll ask about it.

Do i need this tuner or is there a cheaper alternative that i can still have dyno tuned?
just got get a powercommander...se tuner is by far hands down a great tuner but it limits yourself to the stealership, not all indys are familiar with this tuner. its such a complicated tuner and a powercommander will do the same thing per-se and give you more options for people to tune your bike. best of all its cheaper and its not permanently stuck to your bike !

Are you implying that the SE tuner is permanently mounted on a bike? Because the Power Commander is permanently mounted to your bike. The Power Vision made by DynoJet (maker of the Power Commander) isn't mounted to your bike if that's what you are thinking. The SE Tuner will do tons more than the Power Commander.

I ended up going with the Pro Pipe, Heavy breather and SE pro tuner.
I hung out while they dynoed it and it was making around 80hp and 60tq stock and 94 and 84 after (my memory might be off). sounds like they were doing a good job to me.
I get the bike back tomorrow and will have the sheet.

LOL sorry i think your right, i was at work and typed it up fast.
But this thread has helped me understand what to expect with the tuning and what kind of power i should be making and it seems like i ended up with the right numbers.
