Default More horsepower?

Newbie here..Got a question of course?? I just had an arata slip-on and power commander installed yesterday to my 04 600rr, and I was trying to firgure out what the average gain in horsepower I should have gotten... the shop I took it to this was the specs
Stock H/P 104.2 TQ 43.9
Pipe/commander H/P 110.1 TQ45.7

I was hoping to gain at least 10 horsepower but only got about 6 was wondering if this is correct or try to have some other shop dyno??

I think most company use the good old Marketing hype to get people to think bikes are going to be night and day after a few minor mods. I think 6 is realistic. A pipe will net you about 2 or 3, then remapping maybe another 2 or 3. To get 10 I think some port polishing, and other more intrusive mods would have to take place based on 16+ years ir motorcycle and tuning experiance.

Be happy for the 6hp. The real advantage to the pipe/PCIII is WHERE you get the horsepower and torque. Should start lower and the stock EPA flat spot should be gone.

You get more response i.e. throttle, torque, hp.... with sprockets and a 520 conversion.

LESS REVOLVING MASS releases more hp and torque you dont use... (maybe i worded it wrong but its basically what I understand about it, and what I have felt.)

EXHAUST & PC ehhhhhhhh 4/10
SPROCKETS & 520 CONVERSION WEEEEEE! 10/10

That should be your next 140$ conversion!... You'll LOVE your bike then lol...

Changing the sprockets are out of the question for me. Geez, this thing already turns at 6900 rpms at 80mph! I really wish it had a 7th gear.
