Fitting Restrictors

I recently bought a set of restrictors off ebay (just the plates, no instructions), and was planning on fitting them myself and then having the bike dyno'd to prove 33bhp. I assumed you had to remove the rubber 'trumpets' from the entrance to the carbs and place the restictor plates there instead, but i was chatting with a friend of mine who's a mechanic, and he seemed to think it would be easier to fit them at the exhaust stage and that the bike would also run better if i did this.

As you guys have a lot more experience with bikes than he does, i was wondering is someone could clarify for me exactly where the restrictors are supposed to be fitted.

Many thanks

Graham

I cant believe the number of times this has come up over the last few weeks! Ill have to write this up soon as i can i think!

The restrctors themselves go in between the inlet rubber and the engine block as shown in the following link
