The only advantage of the Freak kit IMHO is the extra space for a toolbox.
Have you ridden one of these bikes with and without this mod? Probably not or you would not have made that statement.
I had short TORs (four holes in the rear baffle) and all stock before I did the Freak kit. The only other thing I did was rejet. Holy Mother of Mercy!! Quite a shot of power just from the these two mods.
I had no desire to diddle with the airbox trying to fine tune it when removal of it and installation of pods produced very real additional power. Now we have ghetto (homemade) Freaks, so cost is no longer a factor either.
IMO, the airbox was/is restrictive and not designed as a 'lung' but just to fill the space and provide mount points. btw, unless you look very close, you cannot tell I have an airbox elimination kit installed....
