    Merry Christmas.

    That fuel pump is cheap. I wonder if it's built cheap too?

    Possibly but it is not made in China and might be a good value will certainly give it a good look before swapping out the OEM, Meanwhile here is another bogus 98-01 performance exhaust link that's linked to the exact same info showing an inline 4 system. Basically what's happening is these websites have no actual inventory or investment beyond a webpage link and they are acting as middle-men marketing performance systems, if something goes wrong like it won't fit up you'll be SOL and out a lot of cash. This is a strong indicator of what's yet to come "buyer beware"

    I'm only going to say this 3 or 4 times or until I find a source for a really fast fuel pump.

    Do yourself a favor. Test the pressure of your stock pump first to see if there is even a need to replacement.

    If I'm going to spend all that time pulling the tank and going into the guts, if that new pump loils like a better product,it might go in there or I'll just leave it and swap out the filter, BTW the filter costs twice as much as the pump

    The 5th Gen just needs restrictions removed and slightly improved oxygen, fuel and exhaust "flow" in combination with the less restrictive Euro ECU. Also make sure the air (Pipercross) and fuel filter are new and the fuel pump is in perfect working order. The idea is to make the most out of what is already there without any drastic changes by trying to "over compensate" the key to a perfectly tuned 5th Gen VFR is "perfect balance". The evolution of gear-driven cam continues with the exciting new Honda Moto GP RC213V with its $184k price tag ��

    Here you can read about how the various versions are configured, as always the Euro Spec delivers the goods

    The European-spec bike has a claimed output of 157 peak horsepower at 11,000 rpm, while the U.S. machine will make 101 hp at 8,000 rpm. If it’s any consolation to potential American buyers, the Japanese domestic version is limited to 68 hp at 6,000 rpm. For the record, I rode a Euro-spec RC213V-S along with another equipped with the accessory Sport Kit. Among the performance kit bits is an ECU and exhaust system combination that unleashes a claimed 212-plus hp at 13,000 rpm.

    Then you probably shouldn't be using a "more restrictive" German ECU, should you?

    The Euro ECU G is only "less restrictive" in "speech" and "thinking" and can only be "fully realized, in reality" by actually experiencing a 5th Gen VFR with a Euro ECU. However there are a large community that fall into a group of "non-5th Gen VFR individuals" , mostly likely you happen to fall within this group. The truth of the matter is only OP has actually experienced a Euro ECU G installed on a 5th Gen VFR with all other restrictions removed and fuel, oxygen and exhaust "flow optimized". However you are welcome to participate in this thread in "speech"

    Ummm, not only am I not into whips and chains, I happen to own a 5th gen VFR with a Euro ECU (unrestricted). Your ECU is the German version from 1999, which is not "full power", as it was designed for a bike with 8PS fewer metric horsepowers than the normal version. There is no rational reason to assume that parts from a lower-power model would result in higher power when installed in a normal model. However, as an agnostic, I cannot rule out magic...

    It would appear you have an Euro ECU "ED" which is still a Euro ECU, the "stated" power numbers vary from country to country, the reality is what happens when an Euro ECU is combined with un-restricted air, fuel and exhaust systems. This is evident because PowerCommander has both Euro and Non-Euro fuel map files rather than fuel maps by Euro country ECU

    That's fine but it not true, it's "intentional mis-information" and to physically substantiate, will not explain the following video:

    It is true, you are the one that has to prove otherwise, which from post one of this troll and on VFRDiscussion, you have singularly failed to do.
    You are either a moron or a moronic troll. Either way there is a common theme.

    Strictly speaking in the environment of "speech" one has the freedom to command keystrokes to arrange pixels to form an informational text communication. The purpose of "heavy pronoun usage" is to assist in elaborating distortions away from the thread subject matter topic. That's fine, this thread is also here to serve whatever purpose. Thank you for your subjective descriptive essay��

    In 2001 there was only one "Euro ECU", and that's the one in my 2001 5th gen. In 1998 and 1999 there was a separate ECU for Germany, due to the fact that those models had catalysts and more restrictive exhaust systems. (We've been through this before.) For some unknown reason you bought a 1999 German-spec ECU, a part designed for a bike with 8PS fewer horsepowers than the ED models. You should have bought a "full power "ECU if you wanted to test your theory, but you didn't. I think you suggested in one of your first posts that you couldn't get anyone in the UK to ship to the USA? Perhaps you did not realise the significance of the different ECUs at the time. You should by now!

    The reason why DynoJet has only one "Euro" fuel map in 2000-01, and two "Euro" fuel maps in 1998-99 is very likely to account for the lower performance German and Swiss models in 1998-99 (there are two "Euro" maps for 1998-99, only one of which is called "full power").

    The only people who will be interested in your video will be the law enforcement authorities where you live; by itself it shows nothing of relevance (apart from the fact that your bike did not manage to achieve the top speed of a "normal" bike).
