Gains to be expected (RWHP)
From pulling the flies and getting a tune....
Full exhaust system with tune....
Just wondering what the average is for these two mods...Also what is the best system that retains the two exhaust look and is a direct bolt-on. Does muzzy have one that has two pipes?

Flies is a free mod! I have not seen any aftermarket dual exhaust full systems at least not available in the US.
I know in the UK there are some manufacturers that make full system duals for other models but not sure if they have any for the 14.
They are very very pricey too!

The gains from just pulling the flies are at lower engine speeds, around 3000rpm and depend on the year of the bike, because they are mapped differently by Kawasaki.
On an 06 with a PC and a custom tune you could see another 25bhp by getting rid of the hole in the power curve and much better throttle response at low rpm. Peak power will not change by pulling the flies but the custom tune might find a little more.
If you change the exhaust system too, for a decent four-into-one, you should see at least another 20bhp at peak power and the power-to-weight ratio will also improve because the Kawasaki system is very heavy.
I don't know about dual systems, they are mostly for sound and looks in my book.

The Brocks Dual CT System actually makes more horsepower than the single, but not by much, and it is BIG $.

The CTdual will make as much power (or more) as a 4/1. Do not mistake a true full exhaust for slip-on mufflers.

So stock pipes with fly's removed and PC tune is 20 RWHP!!!! Has this been tested on a dyno? Are those fly's that restrictive?

Fly removal does not boost peak hp. With a full system you will see 15-20 hp peak. Fly removal will enhance low-mid rpm power, stock pipes or aftermarket.

I have an 07. PCIII, flies out, Brocks CT single exhaust, 16-41 gears and it makes about 181 HP. About 20 lbs lighter with the exhaust system.
Before I did all that it had 157 HP. Hope that helps.

Removing the flies just moves your torque curve to start 3500rpm earlier with the 06-07.

Nothing spectacular/not much for my 08. All these were tuned to the mod for best TTD
Dark blue is flies out, Muzzy at 0 (stock timing)
Lt blue is flies out, Muzzy at 4 deg adv, which showed a few HP/TQ loss. I was very surprised at that.
Red is flies in, Muzzy 0

It will be a much bigger (huge) difference on the 06, though.

What setup did you have to make the 157hp?

You must be joking? a custom tune will gain 25 bhp and another 20 bhp from a four into one system for a total 45 more hp? thats a joke.maybe ten to fifteen tops and thats tops from those mods.

I just talked to PO and he said he put ONLY a front sprocket on the bike and it was -1 than stock...
How does that affect performance? Faster in the quarter mile but lower top speed? If so by how much and is that a good mod to only do the front sprocket?

Yes, quicker at the expense of top speed. However, I have been 186+ actual mph on -1 gearing, officially timed at the Maxton Mile LSR event. You will need a Speedohealer to keep the limiter from kicking in early, however.
Unless you plan on going over 188-190 real mph, I would consider it a good trade.

Yes you will notice better throttle response and feel a bit more power with the flies out even with the 09.

He did install the speedo healer with it. He actually has a little button that I can hit and it shows the highest speed he has ever hit. Right inbetween 170-180. How much faster is -1 over stock?
