i don't think much, the LM set up is just a free-flowing exhaust with a resonator. It's not a good investment for the 2whp you may gain, lol. I'd invest in a TB or something, idk if you have a lit but that would be where i would spend it.

I know how you feel spending $200 for an electric cutout and might not gain anything. I just ordered a manuel one, only $30.
