If you mean using any of the bolt-on sets currently available, about 15 hp is the advantage. Lots of down sides for me also - too wide at your knees, pod filters are too loud, or open stacks let in dirt, somewhat poor driveability, big bucks. So all depends on what 15 hp is worth to you.

Just to elaborate on what Dave mentioned regarding poor drive-ability -- that typically comes in the form of idle issues and poor response in low/mid-range response.
