Hey All,

I'm up in blizzarding Alberta, Canada - so I won't be riding for another month or two, but can't wait. Now seems like a good time to start doing some upgrades for this season. I was hoping to get some opinions and tips from all of you on the following:

1. Air Intake, Hyper Charger, Tornado, or otherwise - any opinions? They'll all work generally the same I assume? Has anyone that lives in Canada or another place with fluctuating weather tried one of these? I'm worried about getting water, bugs, or dust in my engine. Is this something I should be concerned about?

2. Exhaust - I debaffled last year, and love it. I was thinking that in order to make it a bit louder I might try to "de-mickey" it. Can anyone provide a how to link for that, and advise if it sounds any better, different, pros or cons, etc?

3. FI Mod - What's recommended around here? I was thinking that PCIII USB one that I can hook up to my laptop, but curious to see what everyone elses opinions are.

Thanks all, I appreciate your time!
