·With all of the discussions about engine mods and power, I thought I would post (again) some of the results I had with different mods and what I would suggest.
First is an aftermarket exhaust or Triumph Off-Road Silencers and tune. This takes a stock bike from 112-113 hp to 117-118 hp. A good flowing and cheap set of silencers are the best bet here.
Next is Tuneboy or Power Commander. IF you can get someone to loan you a Tuneboy cable, The key only costs US $150 and can make 124-125 RWHP with the above mods when using the 10088dyno_39 tune. [ http://www.tuneboy.com.au/images/2005_SpeedTriple_TuneBoy_Remap_T.jpg ]
Next is the removal of the precat and clean up in the stock header. If you can weld (or have it done cheaply) this is worth several hp throughout the powerband and costs very little. Ceramic coating and/or wrapping the primaries also greatly reduces the heat radiated into the radiator and airbox.
Last is an aftermarket filter - K&N, BMC, or DNA - only worth 1-2 of hp on the top end, but it is an easy 1-2 hp.
On the 2007 bikes, getting your hands on a mid-pipe from a 2005-2006 bike will replace the catalyst in the 2007 mid-pipe. Anyone that has a full or half exhaust system will have this mid-pipe and not be using it. You MAY be able to pick up one cheap.
These mods should have you at the 126-128 rwhp level.
Intake clean up - See the thread on this site about the work required here. But if you can handle this, it is worth 1-2 hp on the top end.
This is NOT the end-all, be-all word on this subject, but I hope it helps.
