Mine is left functioning. I have mild head work, a little meat taken off the bottom and stg II cams. But as far as Vboost, it's business as usual unless I'm going to activate my nitrous system.
Due to it's configuration I want the Vboost turned off. With my setup I'm feeding the nitrous through the intake of the carburetor not fed in the manifold between the carbs and the heads like others are doing. I really don't want two carbs, both being fed with nitrous and fuel to be inhaled by one cylinder, like they do when Vboost is open. Also, If I go out on a ride or riding in the rain, I'll shut it off as well. Saves a little on the fuel and keeps the surprises down.
For around town cruising, its left functioning. I bought the Tboost, it was fun for a while. I tuned the bike for the opening of the Vboost at 3k, but then it ran like *** at the stock 6k and turned off. So I just tuned for normal Vboost operation and just use the toggle, on my instrument cluster, to turn it off and on.
For what it's worth, Here is a couple of dyno sheets that show Vboost open at 3k compared to 6k, and open Vboost full time compared to 6k. The blue line is the stock Vboost operation the red is the 3k setup (first sheet) / always on setup (in the second sheet)
