Well they say about 9rwhp from the pulley. The free air mod.. maybe 1-2 and in your sig is says bullet mufflers. Do you just have the bullets in place of the stock muffler? I have been considering changing out my chokemaster for some true duals or loudmouth and adding a pulley myself. Overall i would guess there is about 12-15rwhp to be had.

Well, back pressure is not what you want. you want to have good scavenging and velocity.
