Can anyone tell me what kind of difference one can expect from Triumphs Off Road Pipe kit. I am thinking of changing if it is worth while. Sound better???more power???
What other basic mods do you recommend for mi 03 T-bird Sport?

The sound will be about 100% cooler and louder (not ear bleeding loud).
You'll get a few extra ponies...but you'd have to turn out the mixture screws
to about 2 - 2.5 turns. This requires drilling if the screws are still plugged....no biggie
if they are...the drilling is easy.

I recommend it strongly! So much more fun...plus LOUD PIPES SAVE LIVES!!

You might also consider changing the stock air filter to a more high-flow, K&N
for instance. It does not require re-jetting.

You can start drilling holes in the airbox and re-jet the carbs to gain
more ompf.
S3 cams and pistons...to get Speed Triple action into that fine bird.

There's no end to how much money you can pour into these bikes.....believe me, my wallet is painfully aware of this.

There are mountains of threads about how to gain more power out of these bikes...and it's very doable. Use the search function and find bliss
