seems that way, although difficult to tell right now because the fecking throttle cable keeps getting caught under the new throttle body/inlet so I'm sitting at like 2000 rpm, idle hahaha. Probably going to cable tie it out of the way. It seems to pick up a lot easier though! Like, fifth gear, going round a corner so ease off a little, then when i throttle again it just goes no bother. And it also rides the clutch better, when i lift off the throttle she really goes just by herself. It's hard to describe but it seems to have made a positive difference!
