Usually carbon buildup means you're running rich in your jetting.
Did you adjust your needle after you put the pipe on? When you ride it, does power seem to miss anywhere? Idle/Low? Midrange, Top End?

Those 6-packs work pretty good.

If you can tell anything from that pic, other then he needs to stain his deck, you have better vision than me. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
