My 2nd VL (about 4 years ago) wasn't too over the top... Had 104ish rwkw. Only mods were: Chiptorque Stage 3 chip Extractors & 2.5" exhaust Lumpy Crow Cam (unsure of specs...) O2 Rush Foam Filter (in original Airbox) and a CAI (3" Drain pipe running from the left GroupA Brake duct up into the bottom of the Airbox!)

I thought out of the factory they are 114, obviously over time that would get reduced.

No that's 114 flywheel kilowatts. Flywheel kilowatts is just an arbitrary number that means nothing at all really. What matters is power at the wheels.

114 flywheel kw would be only approx 78 - 80 rear wheel kilowatts.

ye auto tends to loose a bit on the dyno but is better for the track with stally cause with manual you would just get wheel spin
