The q was a stage 1 96 vs a 103 with slip ons.

 

uhh yeaa, read the first part of sentence. the point is the other guy was referencing a 96er with full exhaust upgrade, big diff from slip ons. the se air cleaner is not the big deal here. Actually none of this is.

 

Why even debate stage 1 power of any ride? It's like watching Miley Cyrus twerk again...who really cares.

 

It's not even stage one sorry...stage 1/2.

 

OK, then don't be here.....................Miley

 

Point being (and I should have added); the 103 is way more detuned than the 96. My 13 year old 95 puts out basically identical numbers as a new 103. I don't ride on a dyno either there puddles, so put away the tape measure. A tuned 96 is hard to beat.

 

there was a comparison between stock 96 & 103 a few years back and the result was not much difference. explanation was the 103 was detuned to meet EPA, the extra cubes made up for the detuning.
the 14's 103 are different than previous with a different cam and breather

 

The point you left out was an important one IMO. And you're the one that offered the measurements, not me.

 

Irrelevant to discussion. The 01 95" has bigger bore and shorter stroke than a factory 96". The. 96" is a stroked tc88.

 

I don't think my 2007 stage 1 RK 96 can out run my 2014 SG from to 100 MPH, with it's
stock running gear. That is by my fat a$$ seat dyno.
