    Okay Okay okay. So its a PITA and very time consuming. Lets get back to the original question, and lets say that I was actually mentally prepared for the long haul and still wanted to rejet.

    Would it be "easier", more beneficial to rejet both pods and new exhaust system together. OR. Install pods first, rejet properly, then install exhaust and rejet properly again?

      Do everything at once. No point in going to the hassle of finding the sweet spot once, then doing it all over again to accomodate more changes.

        Fair enough Steve. I'll say it this way: you don't want to rejet more than once.
