Who told you that? That is exactly opposite of what should happen. Under your avatar you say you have a TT Race Tuner...do you mean a TTS Mastertune? If so, are you running a canned map or a custom map? Or are you running a SE Race Tuner done by the dealer, and they are feeding you that BS about your engine running hotter after pipes and a tune? Performance is generally dictated on Ambient air temps being sucked into the intake, with cooler air giving better performance than hot, humid air. Your oil temps would have to be increasing fairly dramatically to notice a significant drop in oil pressure, depending on what kind of oil you are running (Dino as opposed to Synthetic).
My brain was working faster than my fingers,Long story short I had originally had a TTS mastertune on my bike installed and dynoed by the dealer,They got it so hot it melted the nylon tie on the frame next to the xpipe.I took it back 3 times but it still ran hot because it was running way to lean.I was at Daytona in October and got Chris @ Cycle Solutions to put a Power Commander 5 on and retune it,The bike runs real well and with half the heat it had with the TTS and the bad tune.BUT I don't like the added heat with the vented lowers on and I don't ride that much in the winter months
