Has anyone tried this on a 195? Curious if it is worth the effort on a Supercharged engine.

Hey. I did it on my 2019 AR195. I think it may have help in the mid range area BUT, keep in mind if on a 2019, it is now a one piece design that is built into the intake manifold. I had to cut mine out. Would I do it again, the short answer is no. Not worth the effort and possible damage to the intake. Just my opinion.

I heard about that. I wonder why they changed it. Mine is 2018 but according to Riva’s site 2018 is also a 1 part design.

I don't know there reason for the changes unless they (Coast Guard) was on to the fact people were removing them which put pressure on Yamaha. Of course, it could be a money thing too.
