- August 08, 2017, 11:13:14 AMOk, now it's a clear to me:
I dont need any jetkits or Powercommanders if I change factory pipes to V&H and keeping default factory air filter, that's good!
Ok, and what's about power. If I change factory pipes to V&H Longshot's and I keep factory air filter.
Is this an effect a power? Can I get more horsepower?

My bike past owner say that when he install V&H pipes, he never needs any Powercommander to it.

Other than that, your guess is as good as mine.It do not see a power commander behind side covers and not that it matters to me but here is one of the many very documented receipts given to me when I picked up the bike and it was only a 4600 or so mile bike. The cobra pipe and k and n mentioned was part of the deal as well and I have this pipe. Where would the power commander be. Any other place to put it?

I will go check to see if I see it.When did you get the 800? Inquiring minds want to know or did you just add that because you are thinking about it.....
The 1999 - 800 we pick up the 28th then head to our friends NC mountain top home for a week.
I never thought I would own four bikes. I have issues!

So any Cobra Fi2000 will do, it just means if it's not specified for your model, you need to tune it ? I see one for a Suzuki Boulevard M109R for $160 - including free (3 weeks) to ship to Australia. This one is called tripot (and supposedly easier to fit) yet another version says works with OEM, are these easier to fit to a Drifter. Is one model - 2000/2000R/2000 Tri pot easier to fit than another ? I can change/solder connectors etc, but might as well start with the easiest one. The Power pro model sounds flash, but for the price(s) it's out of my range.
Many Thanks

I'm sure it is installed but I do not know where it would be located. Mine has the long shots.

- July 19, 2017, 12:58:53 PMMOST people who change out only their pipes don't require the addition of a FI box. BUT, that depends upon the pipes. My Big Willys did require I add a Cobra box to prevent decel backfiring etc. If you mess with the air box AND change the pipes you will need to add the FI box. I got the cobra box because it didn't require new mapping and has pots to tweak the system. I worked great for me out of the box. I'd try it without the box first... if you get decel popping, etc then go with one of the add-on FI boxes.
