Not much unless you fit some stonkin' pipes and decent breathing mods to go with 'em I'm afraid.
Standard cans are very restrictive and weigh the same as a small trawler.
To a Raptor....EVERYTHING else is just prey !!

WOOHOO!...TWINS!

The power commander will improve "rideability" of your bike on it's own. The extra grunt comes from ditching the restrictions in the air box and exhaust system. Different dynos will give different power outputs, it's only a number! The feeling from your backside dyno will tell you the increase......

These are fabulous engines, modding them is addictive. You have been warned......

I fitted MTC cans as the stock pipes got trashed after being knocked off in 2011. They fitted a Power Commander 3 so the new pipes were compatible with the fuel system. It was dyno'd and I gained around 6 BHP, but this only shows at higher speeds. An estimated top speed of 162 was shown on the graph, but I have lost a little bit of bottom end grunt in the process- but it's marginal.
