might not prove anything...perhaps they tuned it to run higher fuel pressure and it takes a little longer to build up than factory?
 
on the fuel thing a filter only takes out particulates... any fuel can and will clog injectors over time... BP ultimate has a lot of detergent in it to try to clean out deposits of fuel and carbon, but on the cbr it has secondary showerhead injectors and they only come on over 90% throttle and 6000rpm.... the fuel basically dried in the injector nozzles and blocked them... the normal injectors have had no problems... i'm actually wondering whether all the additives they put in to clean the system while its running make blockages worse for areas with low flow.... Just my 2c.

Mm.. Whilst I have all of your attention. My Parker light died on me last night and so I tried pulling the light out following the instructions on the "how to" section. But I don't seem to be able to get the reflector to snap out. :-(. It seems to just be bending the plastic behind the reflector and how the semblance doesn't sit back in nicely. Sigh, might have to source another pair of reflectors and indicator/Parker light housings as the plastic is just crumbling away behind. Anyone else had this problem? Got any solutions on fixing it?

Not one of Toyota's best designs.
The reflectors can sometimes be very tight to get out, and you will need the two screwdrivers to lever them out without breaking the reflector.
I can understand a reluctance to use force but there is no other practical way to get to the globes.

Ok! So I still couldn't get the indicator off after trying the double screwdriver effort and decided to investigate a bit. I took off the headlamp and realised I could reach down and pull the bulbs out from the back without having to pull the indicator off! So for future reference, this way is less risky and a lot less time to consuming. Happy days! :)

Congratulations, I had wondered if a globe could be changed that way.
I hope you pulled the RTR fuse in the front trunk as a safety measure before reaching in.
