Stock 103 piston/head upgrade???
I have a 2011 SG, SE h/b, Fatcat, S&S HP103 cam, Evolution 30 tooth compensator, and a Energy One clutch with SE high performance spring.
I want to change out the stock pistons and go with a higher compression piston in hopes that I can gain more torque and hp. I don't know which manufacturer to go with or how hot it will make my bike run. Need advice on that. I also know that in order to gain more power I need more air. So I'm considering going to a 58mm throttle body. I hear S&S Throttle Hog is the way to go but need some more info. I've seen 58mm kits on Ebay for 600+ but looking to save a few coins if at all possible. Need advice on this too. SO this off season its either going to be throttle body and pistons for a quick fix. Or just some major head work and build around that as time/money permits. Looking forward to hearing everyones comments, thanks |
Can raise compression by going to a thinner head gasket I believe.

Headwork will get ya more than pistons and/or throttle body. In fact a bigger throttle body is a complete waste without headwork.

you are going to do head work, pistons and 58MM TB to get well into the 100/100 club
from the looks of the stuff you have already you should already be pretty close |
Neggy the cam and the other two components got me 105hp and 113 torque.
Oldhippie so doing just headwork is enough and I won't lose the current performance?? |
I think a 58mm TB is too much for a 103, 50 should be plenty big, but as long as the air can enter and exit fast enough the better. I have a 10.5-1 with MVA heads, 50mm TB, 585 cams, Arlen Ness inverted AC and Supertrapp 2:1:2 stepped headers with X pipe and 26 discs each, and its making 124/121
