Default Anyone have Tornado or Hypercharger?

I have been having problems getting my fuel mixture right. So I am probably going to get my bike dyno'd. But before I do that I am going to put a different air intake on. Anyone have either the Hypercharger or the Tornado on their M50? If so, do you notice a difference in performance? How about its looks?

Thanks.

Yeah I have the tornado and it works as advertised...wish it was cheaper but oh wells. I don't have any regrets getting it, the gain is substantial, the look is awesome. Only complaint...the oil on the k&n dries out so be sure to cover it (i use a plastic cup) if you park outside for extended periods of time.

You have a computer on it, right? Which one?

I have the Tornado w/ a TFI. I don't think it really matters which intake you put on it. Most will have the capacity to supply more air than your bike will take. My understanding is the Hypercharger allows the least amount of air through it than any inlet from thunder mfg, but more than your bike will ever use. Do more research on the fuel computers.

Air intakes just reflect your style. I didn't go w/ Hypercharger because everyone else was doing it. I went with the tornado because not many were doing it and I could always change covers or make my own cover in the future.

I have the Hypercharger on my M95. I like the looks and it works great, but it sticks out a ways and interferes with the peg and break peddle.
