In stock trim, newgens have slightly lean midrange and super-rich WOT/high-end. Intake has no restriction (other than intake snorkel). Removing airbox completely doesn't improve flow any, so K&N pods won't change anything either. Full exhaust does yield a 20% improvement in flow and 20% improvement in power.

My race-bike was dyno-tuned by sponsor Spears Racing after I installed full Tyga exhaust. They found that my WOT/high-end mixture was still too rich and went to smaller DynoJet 96 main jet and stg. 2 needle. This gave us dyno-chart like this . We couldn't go even smaller main-jet for even more power due to leaning out mid-range too much.






Stg.2 needle is at very bottom (4). Notice that tip is larger diameter than stock needle #3? This has effect of reducing fuel and leaning out WOT/high-end even more than just down-sizing to 96 mains alone. Problem is mid-range lean spot. Can't shim needle because that would also richen top-end. I'm going to custom-grind some needles on mini-lathe

Check out this thread for related discussion. Please read the linked magazine article where they prepared newg en for racing: https://www.ninjette.org/forums/showthread.php?t=329085
so should i start with down sizing my main jet? what do you recommended i start with?
