x1000, they're full of compromises
-crappy gearing pre 2007
-2008s and 2009s spin rod bearings even stock
-tiny turbo
-heat soak prone TMIC
-boxers with exhausts sound like Harleys
-tons of piping pre turbo is inefficient
-FMIC means more piping pre-engine inlet and laaaaaaaaaag
-owl catcher hood scoop sways in wind and shakes hood
I could go on and on.
