  • JOELED 220 (Performance Tuned)

    Hello everybody, I am a new member to the Team, however I have been following Xbhp for a long time.

    Coming to the topic, Me and my friend (Ashish) got our 220 tuned by Joel, and I would like to share my experience.

    Mine is the 220 dtsi (carb version) while Ashish has the FI version. We were lucky enough to get both the bikes tuned by Joel.

    Joel has worked on the Head and also installed his famous FFE on our bikes.

    Mine was a 2 stage process. I first got the head job done, and the FFE came in after 2 weeks.

    After the head job itself the bike felt like a different animal altogether. Refinement, throttle response, Acceleration, Cold Start you name any parameter everything seem to have improved many fold.

    Then came the FFE, it was like attaining Nirvana on bike. Man its so fast. It easily crosses 11000 rpm, and it shoots like a rocket in any gear.

    Joel, thanks man for the work. I am mighty impressed and I am willing to go even further to make my machine even faster.

    For the record, the FFE sounds amazing. Its like music to any petrolhead.

        @TS:
        Please post pictures and if possible a movie with engine running. I'm curious to see what the man has done to the good ol' P220.

                      His race facility is at Kormangla. He has raised a thread here with his details. Contact him and get it done. He's got lotsa goodies for RTRs & R15s.

                      No, Joel mentioned that he had the exhaust for 220 long back.But yeah this is the first time someone came up with a testimonial thread.

                        Hello Everybody. Did not get a chance to check the figures. However, the bike feels a lot different than the stock condition.

                        The best part is the Fuel Economy hasn't gone down. Only after Ashish tested my bike he went ahead with the modifications.

                        Joel has changed my perception. Now I do not feel like investing on a new bike like CBR250R which was supposed to be my next purchase as Joel can make my existing bike faster with a fraction of CBR's cost.

                        Its my perception though, others may not agree to it completely.

                              You should go through my thread, my average did not decrease, it actually increased, with the same KIND of riding I get 40 kmpl whereas before mods I use to get 30.
