Yeap- I'd like to have a dyno and tech to run it sitting around at my beck and call and hope there is no change in the weather from the time I swap parts around but that not going to happen for any of us. The TB swap takes too much time.
I did the ZX14 throttle body install back before the server crashed/got high jacked or whatever happened. I do not have dyno results, but I do KNOW from riding that the power delivery is much better. BCM, Area P full exhaust, PCV, flies removed. There is a slight stumble down low, very low rpm, just off idle where you never ride except when leaving the drive way. Very slight which could propably be fixed with a new map. However it pulls harder all the way to the limiter and does not peter out. The front comes up in 1st and will wheelie over if you keep it pinned, it comes up in 2nd and I weight 220lbs. It did not do this before the TB install.
I did measurements of the intake runners, posted pictures,etc. Looks like the Kawi enginners at the last minute change the TB's from 44mm to 40mm for the C14 and moved on to another project. Why would anyone put a 40mm TB and match it to a 44 mm intake runner boot?
Makes no sense. Why do the dyno runs fall off before the rev limiter? As an enginner for an auto manufactuer I know how deadlines and new product launches go.
So if you want a fancy dyno number keep looking. If you want a fun factor, a big grin when the front end comes up or scare yourself do the ZX14 TB install. You will be happy you did.
