So, which is before, and which is after? (I had to ask! )

OK...

That makes much better sense! Some reason, I was looking at one set of R&B being before and the other as after... Wasn't sure I liked THOSE differences too much! (I'm an idiot at times! )

GREAT Improvement

You kinda answered your own question, a canned map is a canned map!

Every bike is different, especially when you bring into effect all the variables that come along with tuning (tuner, dyno, location, weather ect.....)

A canned map will provide different numbers on most every application even if it's the same exact bike

I drove from Little Rock, Ar. to have my bike tuned by Ed. I ran the SE-204 cam also. Once Ed worked his magic, it was like riding a new bike back!
