I would have to think you would but whether the amount of gain is worth the cost/time/effort is another thing altogether

I had the SE255s in a 2013 103 and while it provided an improvement in overall power, I'd say it was pretty tame and a bit 'soft'. not sure about your choice listed but there will be many alternative aftermarket choices that would be better and I bet you get a ton of good suggestions here

With a bit more overlap, the bike should run a little cooler, good choice
