With SLP pipes,you will lose power spinning past 8700 RPM,SLP pipes have have excellent torque back up,meaning the peak torque peaks at almost the same RPM as the HP and it's quite high (for a 700 triple )So don't think that spinning this engine faster will make more power,,,it won't.There is a bit more power to be found by pulling the center shim out of the head gasket and installing reed spacers.
