But depends on driving style to a degree IMO. Some people prefer a torquey engine, others like me like a hi reving engine. With a header the FS starts to breathe sooooo much better and doesn't tapper off in the upper rpm. Guys in the states get 20hp from a decent header.

since the FS is so torquey down low, every bit of effort should be spent making sure it breathes well at high RPM... any rev happy mod makes it a more all around better motor
