Longer primary tubes do a couple of things. Higher scavenging effect, at lower RPM, gives better torque. This is caused by a lower resonant frequency of the primary tube itself, os the added torque is almost guaranteed.
Longer primary tubes also keep exhaust gasses at a higher velocity further down the exhaust, so more flow happens in general.
Are they ready to ship yet?

Does the explanation of why longer primary tubes work better make sense to you?
I thought they weren't available yet. I hope they are. Get 'em on there!
