Certainly. Mine has the FZR1000 engine with the 1040 kit, it would be fun to see what would happen with the 1040 on the GTS but I wonder what the stock throttlebodies would think about that. They're only, what..? 34mm vs the FZRs 38 or so.. would that 4mm less choke it to death? Frankly, I don't need top-end gargantuan HP, I think wheelies in 3rd from a standstill would be more fun. :)
Another way might be to start with the stock GTS and use EXUP headers, 1040 kit and maybe open the throttlebodies 1mm more.
