PG-51?  I'm out.  And I got no parents to ask permission.  I find it hard not to get into trouble on the Valk as it is, I sure don't need to supercharge one.  My brother has asked me about putting NOS on his though.

I think many people get fooled into putting too much value on horse power.  I like to look at torque. That is what does the work. HP is a function of RPM x torque. I see where they raise the rev limiter from 5800 to 9000. This by it self adds about 50% to the HP. The magic is getting the crank, rods and bearings to work at the elevated RPM while the gas is pumped in. Oil flow and cooling can stop any engine when the power goes up. That is why race bikes need rebuilt about every day.

The major motor companies have been playing with the RMP vs HP game for years.

Yep. I'll gladly take the 200 ft-lbs of torque and I'll be a happy camper
