You may notice slightly ... but once you adjust and learn the shifting difference you'll compensate and wont notice a difference anymore. I'll hit 120 in fifth gear at around 5k rpm on stock configuration.

Im tuning at UpRev in Austin near the end of next month so I'll post the difference. In all honesty, if you want that aggressive sound and keep the performance ... do it, but know you *will* need to tune since you'll be running hella lean. If you're doing just the short tails you wont need to tune. If you do get the test pipes don't forget the bung extenders. Z1 makes some really good brass ones.

Intakes+test pipes+short tails=tune
Intakes+test pipes=tune
Intakes+short tails=no tune
Test pipes+short tails=tune

Pretty much all configurations with TPs will need a tune. W/o TPs you wont need to... based off my own tests and applications of the above set ups.
